Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Your  crooked days come bundled  up in bunches
break  your brain like a  branch
And  push you out here asking  after something
you  should know I don't have
 'Cause If I had  it you wouldn't have  to ask
 If I had  it you wouldn't have  to ask
Later  on, when you bargain  with your mirror
 and you ask  "is it really that bad?"
 Well if it wasn't  you wouldn't have  to ask
   (OR
 if you so choose)
 If it wasn't you wouldn't have to ask
How  could you know  if you didn't?
What's  left to say  when your tongue's  turned to ash?
   (OR )
 I'd tell you you're fine and forgiven
 So you wouldn't have  to ask
Shoot  what's left, slip  inside your sinner's smile
Another  man  in a mask
 If you faced  it you wouldn't need  a mask
 If you meant  it you wouldn't need  a mask
 If I could fix  you you wouldn't have  to  ask
 
If  I  could  help you you wouldn't have to ask
 The last chord progression can be in open or barre chords, depending on your preference.
 on G. :)
