This guy’s playing is great and might sound difficult but just concentrate on the chords.  And, yes, you will play like this someday :)

 Intro: E

  E
Get your motor runnin´
head out on the highway
Lookin´ for adventure
in whatever comes our way

D     A             E
Yeah, darlin´ gonna make it happen
Take the world in a love embrace
Fire all of the guns at once and
explode in the space

         E
Like a true nature´s child
         G
We were born, born to be wild
           A           G               E
We could climb so high, I never wanna die
E          D A D
Born to be wild…

I like smoke and lightning´
Heavy metal thunder
Wrestlin´ with the wind
And the feelin´ that I´m under
