Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I think  I'm going down,  somehow  I don't care
 There's a band  that's playing pretty  and a lot  of ladies there
 Dancing  quite divine, angels  keeping time
 But I  cant take my eyes  of the  exit sign
 And I'm hellbound  on a barstool
 
 Wond'ring where it all went wrong
 Hellbound  on a barstool
 
 While the angels play their song
 I try  to sign along
 But I fear  I'm
 Too far gone
 A poor  man begs a dollar,  says he needs  it for a ride
 I ask  him where he's going,  he says to  the other side
 I wish  him best of luck,  he says  it's worth a try
 And I  don't have much money  but for those angels  I oblige
 REPEAT CHORUS
Would  I leave  here if I could?
The  angels tell  me that their offering  's still good
 But I'm attended  by Mephistopholes,  gotten  messed up and down on my knees
 When the lights  go on the angels  leave, will  there be a light in me?
 REPEAT CHORUS

I th[G]ink I'm going d[Em]own, s[D]omehow I don't care
There's a b[G]and that's playing pr[Em]etty and a l[D]ot of ladies there
D[G]ancing quite div[Em]ine, [D]angels keeping time
But [G]I cant take my [Em]eyes of the[D] exit sign

And I'm h[C]ellbound on a b[D]arstool
           [G]      [G/f#]       [Em]    [D]
Wond'ring where it all went wrong
H[C]ellbound on a b[D]arstool
           [G]      [G/f#]       [Em]    [D]
While the angels play their song
I tr[C]y to sign along
But I f[D]ear I'm
Too far g[G]one

A p[G]oor man begs a d[Em]ollar, says he n[D]eeds it for a ride
I [G]ask him where he's g[Em]oing, he says t[D]o the other side
I wi[G]sh him best of l[Em]uck, he s[D]ays it's worth a try
And [G]I don't have much m[Em]oney but for those [D]angels I oblige

[G]Would I l[Em]eave here if I [D]could?
[G]The angels t[Em]ell me that their [D]offering 's still good
But I'm att[G]ended by Meph[Em]istopholes, gotte[D]n messed up and down on my knees
When the l[G]ights go on the [Em]angels leave, w[D]ill there be a light in me?
