Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 In a bar  Johnny drinks
 Johnny drinks  Johnny Walker
 till he runs  up a bill  he can't pay
 He's drinking  to the memory
 of a prince  in a pauper's  grave
 And it's  go Johnny go
 where the bruises  don't show
 in the churchyard  where the nervous  get wrecked
 And turn  off your wireless
 for two  minutes silence
Cough  up and pay  your respects
 And go  to the park
 where vicars  and tarts
prey  for their tormented souls
 By the american  graffiti
 from Elephant  and Castle
 in Ford  Capri Orange
Volkswagon  yellow and gold
Johnny  drinks Johnny  drinks
Johnny  drinks Johnny Walker
cockles  his muscles alive  alive 'o
smashes  his bottle  of unholy water
 and it's go  Johnny go,  go, go
Back  to the churchyard
 where day  out day  in
 those original sinners
 are religiously praying
And  where there was muck
 there's a brass  band that's playing
 playing to the memory
 of a prince in a pauper's grave
 ( )  to end
