Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
  We  used to say I could walk all night, and  we could and we did
  Down  a gravel road, to the tiny town with the door  always open.
  Now  we say I could walk all night, and  its not true
  We can't walk  all night, no, because we don't  want to.
  We want a  bed and a blanket, and something like breakfast,
  some  time tomorrow.
  A bed  and a blanket, and something like breakfast,
  some  time tomorrow.
  And  we sing it now
  Hey  hey. Hey hey. Who  woulda thunk it.
  Hey  hey. Hey hey. Who  woulda thunk it.
  We used to say I could eat a horse, and we could and we did,
  Fast food joints in the middle of someplace
  on the way to someplace else.
  Now we say I could eat a horse, but its not true
  We can't eat a horse, no, because we don't want to.
  We want something from the cookbook,
  that new one with the great graphics,
  Something from the cookbook,
  that new one with the great graphics.
  Chorus
  We use to say, I don't care if we don't have any money,
  As long as I got my sweet honey and a shack in the woodlands.
  Now we say, I don't care if I don't have any money
  but its not true
  We can't live without money, no, because we don't want to.
  We want one of those and two of those,
  and oh that one looks neat, wrap it up.
  Put it on my Master Card, put it on my Visa.
  Chorus
 
  Chorus
  We used to say, I don't care if I never grow old
  I'm gonna flame, gonna burn, make one quick turn
  and be gone like James Dean.
  Now we don't say that, its too late, to die young,
  So we sit at the table, long after supper with a good wine.
 repeat...)
