Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Figure out the strumming pattern for yourself, it is very easy.
I've  just reached a place
Where  the willow don't bend.
There's  not much more to be said
It's  the top of the end.
I'm  going,
I'm  going,
I'm  gone.
I'm  closin' the book
On  the pages and the text
And  I don't really care
What  happens next.
I'm  just going,
I'm  going,
I'm  gone.
I  been hangin' on threads,
I  been playin' it straight,
Now,  I've just got to cut loose
Before  it gets late.
So  I'm going,
I'm  going,
I'm  gone.
Grandma  said, "Boy, go and follow your heart
And  you'll be fine at the end  of the line.
All  that's gold isn't meant  to shine.
 Don't you  and your one true love  ever part."
I  been walkin' the road,
I  been livin' on the edge,
Now,  I've just got to go
Before  I get to the ledge.
So  I'm going,
I'm  just going,
I'm  gone.
 During the solo just play the chord progression as you would during the verse and end on F.
 Thats all there is to it!
