Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  was gripped with a bit of fear
 worried the one  thing that I loved
 back when I  was just a kid
 might now never  be enough
 that the body  I was in
 might belong  to someone else
 Someone kinder,  Someone surer, Someone innocent, young and beautiful
 someone purer,  that's the one I know
I  was scratching at my skin hopin changes  would begin
 but what laid  beneath was blood
 well of course  what the hell was I thinking of
 won't you take me down to the creek  wash away our sins of sleep
I  feel so tired as though I might
 not wake at all on the other side....  that's no way to go
Oh  my dear one
 bathe me in your glow
cut  out my lonely heart
 and bury it in the snow
nothing  really means nothing
 is the saddest thing I know
so  deliver me from sin
 and give me rock and roll
 NOTE:
 From here the rest of the song follows the same format. Hopefully you get the gist of it. ENJOY!
 ADDITIONAL LYRICS:
 And in the morning there'll be hope
 and in the morning there'll be light
 and if I sleep and dream up a system
 a solution
 to fend off perils of the night
 come on in, I'll be born again
 born again as someone else
 Someone kinder
 Someone surer
 Someone beautiful
 someone purer
 and when I am you'll know
 and when I am you'll know
 Oh might one
 the devil knows my name
 will salvation come
 and wash away my pain?
 for I was once a kid
 with a pure and innocent soul
 so deliver me from sin
 and give me rock and roll
 Give me rock and roll
 Give me rock and roll
 a pure and innocent soul
 and a pure and innocent soul
 Give me rock and roll
 Give me rock and roll
 and a pure and innocent soul
 and a pure and innocent soul
