Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Doing  E, doing speed, doing cocaine
Mix  it with alcohol and go insane
In  the morning the edge of the knife
Where  the hell is the bright side of life?
It's  a farcical high for a few hours
Then  you're blind and you can't see the bright flowers
For  the light of a child and the glee
If  you splurge then I'll know you'll agree
Turns  you into a shell of what you used to be
All  the weeks you been living in a fantasy
For  the size of the party to come
Day  to day life just doesn't seem fun
I'm  not telling you how to do your thing
I'm  just laying down some facts about indulging
How  the shit going 'round can become
Your  controller, your dictator, your one
I'm  giving it up I swear in the New  Year..
No  more of that for me, you'll see...
I'm  going to be going straight I can't wait
Until  this year is gone, party  on..
Coming  down on the ground in a small house
You're  a man but you feel like a small mouse
Not  so long ago you felt like a king
Someone  give my psychiatrist a ring
Ive  no bread and feel feckin' brain-dead
All  alone in a room full of E-heads
Feel  so hollow and sickly and worthless
There's  no cure in the mosques's or the churches
I  met strangers who barely six hours ago
Were  the best friends I thought I'd ever know
Now  they're strangers again 'cos I'm down
And  I won't say 'hello' if I see them in town
 (chorus to fade)
