Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
It's  dusk as all the shadows fall
 The sun is laid to rest
 At night the city comes  to life
 As the light  dies in the west
Here  we stand as some local band
 Sets circles 'round the clock
 Smoke so thick you need a lighthouse
 So loud  I can't hear myself talk
Someone  whispered in my ear
 "It's not like it was before"
 I don't know what happened  here
 I guess  we just got bored
The  good old days
 Well I suppose, I'm glad they're behind us now
 The only  thing worse than growing  up
 Is never  quite learning how
Late  at night we toss  and we turn
 Lay awake 'til dawn
We  close our eyes as the sun  comes up we're gone
