Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Driving  through the south, no  need to stop for gas
Thats  all taken care of, by the  gas man
Some  of it is very beautiful, some  of it has scars
and  some of it is ugly, as  a bigot in a bar
Travelling  through the south by car,  me and Bonn and Charlie B
The  night makes us stop, by the side  of the road for tea
I  look up in the distance, a branding iron is stuck  up in the night sky
It's  in the shape of American, and it's in flames
but  I'm not sure why
 Into the cornfields
 Into the cordnfields
 We don't want  to  go
 The chorus is played the same as the intro, he drags out the word "cornfields" but its
 easy to get the hang of if you listen to it, you can alternate with the A and the Asus2
 in places, just see which sounds best to you. Thats the whole song, enjoy. Any comments
 are welcome.
