Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Further  into the fog  i fall. Well  i was just  following you.
  When you said "Do  as i do and scrap your fayways"...Dial  a cliche.
  "Grow  up, be a man, and close your mealy mouth"...Dial  a cliche.
  Dial a cliche. Dial a cliche.
 But the person  underneath where does he  go?
  Does he slide  by the wayside;  or does he just die?
  And you find that you've organized  your feelings  for people
  who didn't  like you then and do not like you now.
  But still you say "Do  as i do and scrap your fayways"...Dial  a cliche.
  "Grow  up, be a man, and close your mealy mouth"...Dial  a cliche.
  The safe way  is the only  way. There's always time  to change.
  i've changed  but now  i'm in pain...Dial a cliche.
 i didn't have the luxury of the recording when i wrote this so feel free
 to make corrections. "A working-class hero is something to be."
