i was having some issues getting this song to sound the same as the one they recorded

Dm      C6     Dm           C6
Golden Brown, texture like sun
Dm       C6    Dm           C6
Lays me down, with my mind she runs
Dm              C6    Dm          C6
Throughout the night, no need to fight
Dm       C6    Dm          C6
Never a frown with Golden Brown


Dm  C6   Dm  C6


Every time, just like the last
On the ship tied to the mast
To distant lands, takes both my hands
Never a frown with Golden Brown


Am  Em  F  G6     Am  Em  F  G6     Am  Em  F  G6     Am  Em  G  F
Dm  C6   Dm  C6

[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/stranglers/golden_brown_tab_ver_6.html ]
Golden Brown, fine a temptress
Through the ages she's heading west
>From far away, stays for a day
Never a frown with Golden Brown


Am  Em  F  G6     Am  Em  F  G6     Am  Em  F  G6     Am  Em  G  F
Dm  C6   Dm  C6
