Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Woke  up this morning and the streets  were full of cars,
all  bright and shiny like they'd just  arrived from mars,
and  as I stumbled through last night's  drunken debris,
the  paperboy screamed out the headlines  in the street.
 now guitar 2 starts with the rhythm,which is kinda folk-rock, but just listen to CD):
Another  war and now the pound  is looking weak,
and  tell me have you read about  the latest freak?
We're  bingo numbers and our names  are obsolete.
Why  do I feel bitter, when I should  be feelin' sweet?
 overdrive distortion, all powerchords now, and palm muted punk rhythm):
Hello  , hello,  turn your radio on,
 is there anybody  out there,  help me sing my song,
 la la la life  is a strange thing:
  E (strum full chord, then pick through E, A)
 Just when you think you know how to use it, it's gone.
 played the same way as intro/verse):
Woke  up this morning and my head  was in a dace,
a  brave new world has dawned upon  the human race,
where  words are meaningless and everything's  surreal,
gonna  have to reach my friends to find  out how I feel.
 played like verse 1, start with the rhythm):
And  if I taste the honey: Is  it really sweet?
And  do I eat it with my hands  or with my feet?
Does  anybody really listen  when I speak?
Or  will I have to say it all  again next week?
 -Repeat first part of chorus twice over E5-C5-G#5-B5 chord progression, change the lyrics of the last
 played 2nd time) to:
 Is there anybody  out there,  tell me what went wrong.
 -During the solo the rhythm guitar sticks with the Chorus chord progression and repeats the la la la life part.
 -Repeat first part of chorus twice, then play la la - part, which is the OUTRO:
 guitar 2 lets E - chord ring then guitar 1 fades out silently with A - chord and echo effect.
