Biography:
'Rex Orange County' is Alex O’Connor. A self-taught drummer, Alex grew-up in outskirts of London in Haslemere, Surrey. After applying keys, vocals and anything he could find to write loose-footed, fluid, personable songs about being bored and disillusioned, his self-produced eleven-track debut bedroom album ‘bcos u will never b free’ was released on September 2015. It was followed by the singles ‘UNO’ (2016) and 'Best friend' in January 2017.

Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Based on the way the guitar sounds I believe the song to originally be played with a capo on the 9th fret.
I've listed the voicings to sound as close to the song as possible.
You could also just transpose this one to the original key of A major if you don't want to use a capo.

[Intro]
Cmaj7
[Verse 1]
Cmaj7
I make enough mistakes
Am7 A7
And it feels like she's the only one that hears the things I say
Dm Ddim
So if for any reason there's some miscommunication or I'm lying to her face
Cmaj7
My immaturity and habits getting in the way
Am7 A7 Dm
Cause I can barely breathe and I don't know how I'll explain myself this time
Ddim
Wish it wasn't a case of "this time"
[Chorus]
Cmaj7
But why can't I be any other boy
Gm6 Fmaj7
That doesn't need a hand in love?
G
Someone that I would trust
Cmaj7
But how did I fail
Gm6 Fmaj7
To give you all the love that you deserve?
Bdim
When you're the only thing that's worth
E7-13 E7
What life is worth
[Outro]
Am7
And I don't mind if you hate me
A7 Dm Ddim Cmaj7
Cause baby if I were you I would probably hate me too
Am7
I said that I don't mind if you hate me
A7 Dm Ddim Cmaj7
Cause baby if I were you I would probably hate me too
