Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Every  single night the same arrangement
I  go out and fight the fight
Still  I always feel this strange estrangement
Nothing  here is real, nothing here is  right
I've  been making shows of trading blows
Just  hoping no one knows that  I've been
Going  through the motions
Walking  through the part
Nothing  seems to penetrate my heart
I  was always brave and kind of righteous
Now  I find I'm wavering
Crawl  out of your grave, you find the fight  just
Doesn't  mean a thing. She ain't got  that swing
Thanks  for noticing...
She  does pretty well with fiends from hell
But  lately we can tell that  she's just
Going  through the motions,  faking  it somehow
She's  not even half  the girl she ... ow
Will  I stay this way forever?
Sleepwalk  through my life's  endeavor
How  can I repay--  Whatever. I don't want to  be
Going  through the motions,  losing  all my drive
I  can't even see  if this  is really me
 And I  just want to be
  alive
