Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 x2
 As i stepped  to the edge
 beyond the shadow  of a doubt
with  my conscience beating
 like the pulse  of a drum
 that hammers  on and on
 untill i reach  the break  of day
 As the sun  beats down  on
 the halfway house
has  my conscience beating
 the sound  in my ear
 the will  to perservere
 as i reach  the break  of day
 When you lost all hope  and excuses
 and the cheapskates  & the losers
 Nothings left  to cling onto
 you got to hold on  to yourself
 A cry  of hope
 A plea  for peace
and  my conscience beating
 It's not  what i want  but
 its all  that i need
 to reach  the break  of day
 so i run  to the edge
 beyond the shadow  of a doubt
with  my conscience bleeding
 here lies  the truth
 the lost treasures  of my youth
 as i hold  on to the break  of day
 When you lost all hope  and excuses
 and the cheapskates  & the losers
 Nothings left  to cling onto
 you got to hold on  to yourself
