Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I came  to pick you up driving
 I tried  to phone you to come down but  you were online
 And so I  had to park by your house
 If there's time  for a smoke then I should buy  some fags
 And a ticket  on the window when I come back
I  should have written the code  to your door
I  should have had it as a tattoo  on my hand
I  should have learnt the numbers  by heart
And  you would have let me in again
You  got into my little blue japanese  car
Your  hair smelling good from the shower
Looked  at all the tapes around and on the floor
You  even stepped on sticky fingers
You  took the white box of a Daniel Johnston  tape
Genuine  from Austin, Texas in  your hands and said:
"What's  that? Well it  looks pretty cool..."
 And I knew  that even if for some reason
You  did not know
Some  of the most beautiful  things in the world
You  were one of them too
 And there  could be a lot of songs
 There  could be a lot of songs
 There  could be a lot of songs
 There  could be a lot of songs
 <-- end on
 Notes:
 I've tried my best to line up the chord changes with the lyrics, it might not be too
 easy to follow given how much David can fit into a line, but just listen to the song and it
 should make sense.
 When strumming, alternate between bass and treble strings, really putting some welly
 into the upstrokes, getting the high notes to ring out, or finger pick. Some of the C
 chords are hammered on.
