Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Factories,  Trains and houses,
 Playground of my youth,
The  place that left me mute,
 Till I threw  back my shoulders
Factories,  Trains and houses,
 The place that makes songs strong,
And  hurries you along,
 Some grow old  very quickly
No  star ever played the Cellar Bar,
 Glass and bottle fights,
We  saw some crazy nights,
 But then fight  to excite you
I'm  awoken by a,
 Handbraked horn outside,
I  knew lads who died,
 That sound chills  me inside still
Old  junction could take you away,
In  the hayfeilds we'd squander the day,
From  the corner of Holliwell road
See  the sunset over  St. Bernards,
See  the sunset over  us all,
See  the sunset over  St. Bernards
 Some boys want to get me,
 Because I hit one back,
 I still can hear the crack,
 of his head on the concrete
 Doing drugs and drinking,
 Makes you so depressed,
 Then you think you're blessed,
 When you're dropping and fumbling
 Troubled years and fighting,
 makes you sad you know,
 and mummy had to go,
 sure it's best in the long run
 Old junction could take you away,
 In the hayfeilds we'd squander the day,
 From the corner of Holliwell road,
 See the sunset over St. Bernards,
 See the sunset over us all,
 See the sunset over St. Bernards,
 See the sunset over the wall
