I could not find any tabs on the net and thought of creating one. Its an amazing song and even more so when heard when watching the movie. If you also play keyboard/piano than I suggest you find someone to play this along or record it on the keyboard and play it along with the guitar if you are playing it alone. Also an excellent tab for beginners trying to learn by themselves since there are no bends and slides. Playing it on acoustic guitar sounds pretty nice. If you own an electric, put the reverb to 5-6, bass 7, treble 7. middle 6, distortion down to a minimum and make sure the sound inclines towards more bass with some echo.(Basically, make it like an acoustic). Listen to the song a few times to understand the timing of each note. e|---------------8-8-|-----8-13----12-8~~|------------8-7----|-------------------|x2 B|-------8---10------|-10----------------|-10-8----10-------8|~~-6---------------| G|7---10-------------|-------------------|------10-----------|-----7~~~~~--------| D|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| A|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| E|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| e|--------10-8-------|-------------------|--------10-8-------|-------------------|x1 B|--------------10~~-|-11--8-10~~~~~~----|--------------10~~-|-8-10--------------| G|7---10-------------|-------------------|7---10-------------|-------10-9~~~~~---| D|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| A|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| E|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------|-------------------| Here, note that, for this part and the next just below, the song can be played on B or e whichever sounds better to you.

I believe the song is played on a piano accompanied by piano chords. For all of you who play keyboards. set the tone of your keyboard to something like Grand similar.
