GoHis guitar is tuned pretty high on this song (or the tape is running fast) – to play along you’ll either need to tune higher or capo at the first fret.
I also think he’s missing the first string on his guitar. Either that or it’s just being blocked out. The chords below sound pretty much like the recording, but regular 6-string chords work just fine too.
Whenever he goes to the C chord, he usually plays am Am7 chord for one beat first. My guess is that it just took him a second to get the last finger down on the C chord. Whether or not it’s intentional, that little moment of Am7 makes the song for me... so I’ve included it.

So you think you've found the one
And she knows just how you feel
And you say that she's for real and she's fun
Well, that's all well and good
That's just the way it should be
To understand and be understood is to be free
So I think that you should go
Go on ahead
Take her in your arms and be wed

Go, go, go, go
You restless soul, you're going to find it
Go, go, go, go,
You restless soul, you're going to find it
Life's a bowl of cherries
You can have as many as you can carry
And someone once said that life is like a cow
But I don't know how that applies
But anyhow here we are all on this planet
Taking everything for granted
But I think you've caught on to something
Don't let go
Go, go, go, go
You restless soul, you're going to find it
Go, go, go, go
You restless soul, you're going to find it
Oh, yes you did, you found it
Oh, yes you did, you found it
Oh, yes you did, you found it

Hurt you deep inside but you never slowed down

Speeding motorcycle in my heart
Speeding motorcycle, let's speed smart
'Cause we don't want to wreck but
We can do a lot of tricks
We don't have to break our necks
To get our kicks
Speeding motorcycle, the road is ours
Speeding motorcycle, let's speed some more
We don't need reason and we don't need logic
Cause we've got feeling and we're dang proud of it
Speeding motorcycle, there's nothing you can't do
Speeding motorcycle, I love you
Speeding motorcycle, let's just go
Speeding motorcycle
Let's go let's go let's go
Oo oo
