Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 He gets close,  but I choke
 Take your shit,  take your clothes
 And get out  of my home
 I want you to love  me
 Or I want you long  gone
 You say your real name is John
 Hey, thanks John
 Go sings songs, go rock on
 Roll your crew on down the road
 To the next sold out show
 Think you can get up above me?
 Well, I want you to know
 You're a figure  of fun to everyone
 Beneath the lone  star, neon  blue broken sign
 They wish they were you
 Like I wish you were mine
 What a dumb  thing to do
 How can I shout  goodbye  when god  knows I just want to
Make  this white lie big  enough to climb  inside
With  you
 Another day, lost and gone
 Clipping pages from the news for the senator's son
 Well, he just strolls through the lobby
 And glad hands everyone
 Another day, tossed and done
 I go home
 Take off clothes
 Smoke a bowl
 Watched a whole TV movie
 I was supposed to be writing
 The most beautiful poems
 And completely revealing
 Divine mysteries up close
 I can't say that I'm feeling all that much at all
 At 27 years old
I'm  discussed with desire by the guys  who conspire at the only decent bar  in
town
 And they drink MGD's
 And they wish they had  me
 Like I wish I had fire
 What a sad way to be
 What a girl who got tired
So,  I wonder who you  got your hooks  in tonight
 Was she happy  to be hooked  and on your arm?
 Did she feel alive? Her  head all light
