There's a very nice program called ABCMus that plays and edits tunes written in ABC notation. It has a feature that generates chords for songs, and it works pretty well. I haven't used it since I switched to Windows Vista two years ago because I don't know if it works with Vista, but it worked well with Windows XP.

The song seems to have a very simple harmonic structure, in the key of G.

I'd just play around with G, C and D until something worked as a starting point.

I don't have an instrument to hand, but I suspect something like this would work.

| G / / | G / / | C / D | G / /|
| G / / | G / / | C / G | D / /|
| G / / | G / / | C / G | D / /|
| G / / | G / / | C / D | G / /|
