Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Sunshine  you heal just as much  as you hurt.
 Regret in my veins and blood  on my shirt.
 I sure  must have had myself a personal best.
 It takes filling  my lungs up with smoke to get things off my chest.
Crossing  the border,
wasted again,
With  her number on a Canadian ten.
Oh  mother, oh mother why do  you complain?
 I grew up alright so don't  be  ashamed.
My  mouth has been cleaner and I may have lost all my faith.
 'Til I believe  in myself I can't give my conscience  away.
 You're home  with the dishes,
 And I'm out  with my friends,
 Placing bets  with a Canadian ten.
La  la la  la... (chords  as per  verse)
North  of the border,
 A sin  is a sin,
 When you pay  with a Canadian Ten.
I  searched for a reason to not  search for you.
 But I feel like there's no place I  haven't been  through.
I  told myself don't fall in love when you don’t know their name.
 But my eyes  are straight-wired to my heart and just bypass my brain.
 Sometimes  I’m forgetful,
 So I’ll  start at the end,
 And call the number  on this Canadian ten.
 And call the number  on this Canadian ten.
