Chords used: Am-Am7-F-C-Dm
Am7: 0-0-2-0-1-0
Tuned down a step (i think it's a step... don't know the technical explanation, but if you put the capo on the first fret and tune it normally, then when you take off the capo, it sounds about right.)
[Am]I love my mother
[Am7]I love my father
[Am]I love my sisters, [F]too.
[Am]I bought this guitar
[Am7]To pledge my love
[Am]To pledge my love to [F]you.
I am a [Am]rock bottom [Am7]riser
[Am]And I owe it all to [F]you
I am a [Am]rock bottom [Am7]riser
[Am]And I owe it all to [F]you
I saw a [C]gold ring
At the bottom of the [Dm]river
[C]Glinting at my foolish [Dm]heart
So my [C]foolish heart
Had to go [Dm]diving
[C]Diving, diving, diving
Into the [Dm]murk
And from the [C]bottom of the river
I looked [Dm]up for the sun
Which had [C]shattered in the water
And pieces were [Dm]rained down
Like [C]gold rings
That passed through my [Dm]hands
As I [C]thrashed and I grabbed
I started [Dm]rising, rising, rising
[Am]I left my mother
[Am7]I left my father
[Am]I left my sisters, [F]too
[Am]I left them standing on the [Am7]banks
And they [Am]pulled me out
Of this [F]mighty, mighty, mighty river
I am a [Am]rock bottom [Am7]riser
[Am]And I owe it all to [F]you
I am a [Am]rock bottom [Am7]riser
[Am]And I owe it all to [F]you
[Am]I love my mother
[Am7]I love my father
[Am]I love my sisters, [F]too.
[Am]I bought this guitar
[Am7]To pledge my love
[Am]To pledge my love to [F]you
[C]

Nice simple version of the song. It was really helpful. But can i suggest trying:
Am - I love my mother
Amaj9 - i love my father
Am7 - I love my sisters
F - Too
It felt better for me. See if you agree.
Amaj9 is basically on normal tuning:

I think the chords are as follows for the first verse:
Am -- I love my mother
Ammaj7 -- I love my father
C -- I love my sisters
