Many ways to play and adapt this including bar chords and more of a lead feel. Open chords here for simplicity
Note especially these Cmaj7 Em7 and Am7 versions - other ones sound wrong.

No chord played till the C on "of" but C goes with the start of the song,
or even as an intro, if you prefer to play it that way.
Standard tuning, no capo
Afraid of Ccatching Cmaj7on fireC7
It pulls the Em7blood down FfromC my Dmhead
And still I Cam just an aniCmaj7mal
And Call of my pAm7arts must be Ffed E D
DFunny how the lines so easily fill
When you're Gliving with a Fmuddy head
SlideD down the hilGl
Afraid oCf underCmaj7tow C7
It turns Em7my heart, my head anFd everything IE think I Dmknow
The waves Ccarry it away
I'm lost at sea and I have Amno oar Fto row E D
DAnd there's no way to know baby
The motion of the GseFa D G
[Break] (vibrato on most notes)
