Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
What  did you  mean when you  said you were sorry?
I'm  a bit  confused
I  think you  are all for  wrecking my  guitar
But  you  don't think  you do
I  found a guy who fixed for  twelve hundred bucks
 But you tell me  that you’re sorry
And  it's my tough  luck
United  sees no need  to make anything right
Oh,  Mrs. Irlwig!
We  don't need to fight
If  you just come  to your  senses
Accept  the consequences
 Of you letting certain  baggage handlers
Smash  my property
We  could be best buddies
But  our friendship has been  muddied
 By  a flawed United Airlines  policy
 (Same chords as first verse)
 I sense tone in your last couple emails
 Why is that the case?
 Is it that I've got questions
 You've got the answers
 You don't wanna face
 You've gonne dark and silent as a submarine
 Leaving me hanging like Apollo thirteen
 Adrift in space alone with no ending side
 Oh, Mrs. Irlwig way!
 We don't need to fight
 Lyrics and Music Transcription: Jaime Alejandro Martinez (Bustarviejo, Madrid, Spain).
 Notes
 The song is played on  or  on the YouTube video and as it is originally
 recorded, I assume to accommodate to brass or other wind instruments, but I
 have transposed it to D in this transcription. In order to play it in
 original key you just have to lower every chord or single note by half a
 step.
 English is not my first language so you might find some mistakes on lyrics. I
 tried my best and I hope there is no mistakes on them,but if you find any,
 and there will be for sure, sorry...enjoy it!
