That's on my list too, one of the most beautiful songs ever written imho. I also have In The Ghetto and An American Trilogy from Elvis which never fail to draw a tear.
Other get me a bit weepy songs would include Runrig's Going Home, the Long and Winding Road by The Beatles, The River by Bruce Springsteen, Sinead O'Conner's Nothing Compares 2 U, Strange Fruit by Billie Holiday, and Frank Sinatra/Robbie Williams' version of When I Was.

That'd get on my list too, the sublime Kate and also Everything I Own by Bread. Oh and Cat's in the Cradle by Harry Chapin. And this, from Andrea Botelli and Sarah Brightman. And Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar when Steve Balsamo sings it. And Who Knows Where The Time Goes, Sandy Denny and/or Fairport Convention.
And the hymns Jerusalem and, especially, Abide With Me, specially when they sing them at the Challenge Cup Final at Wembley.
