Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
You  pretend  to be  there for  me
 But in  the end you'll  just ignore  me
 And I  can't say  what hurts  me more
 The game  you played  or the final score
 But who  am I  to say  these things
 To know  how or why,  or what  life brings
 And I made  my bed  so I think  I'll lie down
Rest  my weary head  as it won't  be long now
 And I ain't  got the time
 And I don't  have the patience
 For you  or your kind
 And all  your relations  no
New  words of wisdom
 From an old  friend of mine
 Played just like the first Verse):
 So you go your way and I'll go mine
 And it pains me to say that it wasn't our time
 I'll see you again on down that road
 And I'll call you friend but we both know
 That a thousand years couldn't heal these wounds
 And all our tears could fill these rooms
 And I ain't got the time
 And I don't have the patience
 For you or your kind
 And all your relations no
 New words of wisdom
 From an old friend of mine
 And I ain't got the time
 And I don't have the patience
 For you or your kind
 And all your relations no
 New words of wisdom
 From an old friend of mine
