This is tabbed of the album Euphoria Morning.
The tab is based on the assumption that the song is composed in E,
It's hard to hear on the album what the acoustic guitar is actually playing,
and there seems to be no footage of Cornell playing it.
However, many of the other songs on Euphoria Morning are composed in E or Em,
e.g. Can't Change Me, Flutter Girl, Sweet Euphoria, Disappearing One,
so I'm guessing the same goes for When I'm Down.
Anyhow, here you go.
