October Song has a pretty simple sequence. I think Williamson used to use an open G tuning on his guitar (but don't quote me on that)
You, of course, would have to use the key you're comfortable singing with.

There is no song before it

The words and tune are none of my own

But my joys and sorrows bore it

Beside the sea the brambly briar

In the shade of evening
G C G C G
Birds fly out behind the sun
G D G
And with them I'll be leaving
