Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 then this  lick:
D---------|
A---0-2---|
  E-/4----0-| then E
 The Cmaj9 is basically just a walk-down from the C to get to the Am, the whole chord is
 strummed, but this is the chord anyway:
—0
—1
—0
—0
—2
—0
 The intro is picked in an ascending fashion from low E to high E
 I got water  on the brain
 My mind  is like a drain
Here I  go again
 Over the hill  <-- play the lick over this line.
 My eyes  dont seem too clear
 Im not  sure what I hear
 It seems  Im  going clear
 Over the hill
Like  a cripple and his crutch
I  have leaned a bit too much
Seems  that I should never touch again
Now  it seems its plain to see
That  this stuff is killing me
Got  to quit, so, Ill be free again
 I got  too much to lose
 No one  can fill my shoes
 Think  Ill leave  the blues
 Over the hill
