Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Eliza’s  in the elevator
 Findin’ words that  rhyme with sunny
 I think it’s funny  how,
 she just leaves funny out
 Me I’m on my way downstairs
 Gonna gaze and wander aimlessly
 I’m gonna figure out,
 What Manhattan’s all about
 How I wish it would rain tonight
 I’d find a good  excuse to stay inside
 And watch those drops come
 Tumblin’ through the air
 ‘cause it’s been the worst year of  my life
 I don’t wanna live  I don’t wanna die
 So could you please, could you please
 Could you please
 …..grow out your hair
 2nd verse: same chords as 1st verse
 then…
 Grow  dark and long like  the winter
 With no split ends split  ends are like friends
 I don’t need  them
 See I got  this friend,  this friend with
 The crippled ?
 And I know  what I came for
 I’ll let you know
 And it’s not too  much for you to ask me to grow
 My life is just like  religion,
 I’m makin’  it up as I go oh ohh
 Well they say all  bad things  come in threes
 Well the last year,  made the last three
 Look  so easy
 You were supposed to  keep the disease
 between you and me
 so bandage up your wrist
 throw away your prescription  full
 and baby come back to me ya ahh
 just play  2X
 last verse:
 made  a wish to get ready for the day
 she’ll never regret
 that love is  what
 has kept me on my feet
