Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Talking  to myself in a breezeway
Putting  down anything that I find
Be  it liquor, or candy, or sadness  or brandy
 Or your words  so soft  and so kind
I  wonder if I still own a bible
If  my fingerprints still sit on that page
The  one about love, and why  it's so patient
 And why  I have lost  it with age
An  answer never seems to escape  me
 But now  I'm feeling lost my dear god
 I am sour  and dry if I could  I would cry
 But my eyes  barely open  for sunlight
 I hate  the way that you always think  I'm
 you think I'm out  to accuse for attack
 But I  try and smile, cause after  a while
 I know  you'll be smiling  back
 Yeah, I know  you'll be smiling
 Oh, and I wonder,  do I still own a bible?
 Do my parents,  do they really believe?
 Cause they know  I've been hurt
 And if there's one  thing I've learned
 Don't put your trust  in anyone  or anything
I  said there ain't nothing to learn
Except  pages they burn
 And people  they change just like me
 So baby, don't put your trust  in anyone  or anything
 If for some reason they ever see this, thanks to Sam for
 asking Joe about this song for me, and thanks to Joe and
 Mike for signing my Pop Tart wallet in Massachusetts.
 In the likely event that I screwed these chords up, I'm sorry.
