Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I had a friend  who kept a candle  in his pocket
 He used to touch  it when the wind  was blowing high
 I guess it made  him feel like he  could buck the system
 And when it flickered  out we laid  him down to die
  I turn on  the light,
  Turn on a million  blinding brilliant  white incendiary  lights
  A beacon in  the night,
 I'll burn relentlessly  until  my juice runs dry
 And I'll construct  a rack of tempered  beams and trusses
 And equip  it with just a million  tiny suns
 I'll install  upon the roof  of my compartment
 And place tinfoil  on my floor  and on my walls
  Then I'll turn on  the light,
  Turn on a million  blinding brilliant  white incendiary  lights
  A beacon in  the night,
 I'll burn relentlessly  until  my juice runs dry
------...-  (During bass "solo")
  And I'll
  Bu-urn,  like a Roman  fucking candle
  Bu-urn,  like a chasm  in the night
  Bu-urn,  for a miniscule  duration
  Ecstatic  immolation,  incorrigible  delight
