Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  shout all my obscenities from  steeples  but please don't label me a  madman
 I'm off to see the Bootleg Beatles  as the bootleg Mark Chapman.
Cafe  bars, idiots and pigeons -  there's far too many in this town
 So me and ombudsman  are gonna do  what we can
   (  x2)
 When the evening sun goes down.
 Yes some of my pullovers are roll-necked,  it kind of breaks up the ennui
 But your experimental side project  must have put ten years on  me.
Opposite  the Bannister & Shamrock -  which used to be the Rose & Crown
 I like to play  Pat Boone on the county  bassoon
 When the evening  sun goes dow-ow-ow-own
 When the evening  sun goes down,  get on down.
 When the evening sun, when the evening sun, when the evening sun  goes down
 When the evening sun, when the evening sun, when the evening sun  goes down.
 There are questions in corners of my mind that lurk
 When the evening sun  goes down
 Like how do the road gritters get to work?
 When the evening sun  goes down
 Answer me that and you could win a cruise
 When the evening sun  goes down
 Here's Judy Tzuke to take us up to the news
 When the evening sun  goes down.
Are  these my ultimate pyjamas;  is this my final dressing gown?
 I'm sending on  this rhyme deep in injury  time
 When the evening  sun goes down,  when the evening  sun goes down,
 When the evening  sun goes down.
