Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Just  a dime store poet, keeping  pace, talking his face blue.
Two  dollar store tramps,  to get a glance, a new chance at you.
Walk  passed the dance floor. It's  always been a dear friend of mine.
Cut  calls and concubines. Dancing  in four four time.
"Hey  mister", the bellman  says, "I can only  recall and spend some time  I said."
So  he replies, "Then how  do you manage?"
 I dodge  the blast, and apologize for collateral damage.
 In love,  I've always been  a mercenary,
 But I never  leave my post  when the cash runs out.
 I want to make you quiver,  make your back bones shiver.
 Hey kid, take the stage  and deliver.
"Hey  mister", the bellman  says, "I can only  recall and spend some time  I said."
So  he replies, "Then how  do you manage?"
 I dodge  the blast, and apologize for collateral damage.
 Am F C E x2 (This is progression is repeated through this part):
 How does it feel to stand on the very stones that ran with your parent's blood?
 Do you feel sad? Full of rage? Or does that outfit help bury your feelings?
 Hiding your true self.
 You're truly an extraordinary Specimen, I look forward to breaking you.
 (No guitar)
 I dodge the blast, and apologize for collateral damage.
"Hey  mister", the bellman  says, "I can only  recall and spend some time  I said."
So  he replies, "Then how  do you manage?"
 I dodge  the blast, and apologize for collateral damage.
