Figured this out today. Fun song to play. Apologies for any errors but it seems to 
work for me! I'm not 
quite sure about the F in the verse, might be
a different form or something, sounds 
good playing along with the album, but a little strange solo. All verse lyrics are 
repeated (listen to the song)
All chords relative to capo, of course. 
Capo 1
EmI don't wanna talk about FJesus
AmJust wanna see his Emface
EmThe trees are swinging like haFngin' men
AAmnd I just wanna see his Emface 
CAnd rapture, sweFet rapture
GWon't you lay your hands on me X2
            Em, F, Am,  EmX2
For I am blind
EmMary, take that silver Fdagger
AmPut it to my tEmhroat
EmYou see that levy, it's a-bFound to break
AmPut the children in the Emboat
And Crapture, sweet rapFture
GWon't you lay your hands on me
CAnd rapture, sweet raFpture
GWon't you lay your hands on me 
Repeat C,F, Gto end.
