Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  get myself  up every day
To  fight this  "woe is me" demeanor
If  things had  gone another way
Now  would my grass  be any greener?
And  as I'm struggling  on my own
I  have to think  I'm not alone
Give  and take, we catch  our breaks
We  all learn to survive
But  don't look now
said  don't look now
Cuz  here we are,
Living  the best days of our lives
These  are  the best days  of our lives
I  fly around  the world  to spend
My  nights with  strangers and their  lovers
I  notice  happiness depends
On  if we share  it with each other
So  when this  craziness is through
I'll  spend my  happiness with you
 *Chorus*
As  we're walking  through the fire
Isn't  it great  to be alive?
 *Chorus*
 -Outro/Chorus-
Give  and take, we catch our  breaks
We  all learn to survive
Oh,  but don't look now
I  said don't look now
Cause  here we are,
Living  the best days of our lives
These  are  the best days  of our lives
 Notes:
 The chorus should use the barred version of the A chord.
 The general progression goes something like this:
 
If you want, you can add a little lick after the E chord, harder to do on the
guitar than the piano.
