Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  don’t like hummus, I  hate long lines
Nosey  neighbors and  Venetian blinds
Chirpy  news anchors alter  my mood
I’m  offended by buzzwords like  awesome and dude
I  look like a train wreck I  feel like a blob
Til  you get to know me you  may think I’m a snob
 But I’m closer  to heaven  than I’ve  ever been
 I don’t eat sushi I don’t smoke grass
 I don’t wear pajama’s I don’t drive fast
 I hate idle gossip and wing tip shoes
 Slick politicians give me the blues
 I don’t like limo’s I don’t play golf
 I don’t own a rifle that will blow your head off
 But I’m closer to heaven than I’ve ever been
 I’m riding  the wave  from cradle  to grave
 I’m learning  to feel  my hands  on the wheel
 I love my friends I love my wife
 My four little babies are the light of my life
 I love Sissy Spacek I love Guy Clark
 All the biscuits and gravy I can eat with a fork
 I don’t want to be famous who gives a damn
 I just want to be happy wherever I am
 And I’m closer to heaven than I’ve ever been
 I’m closer to heaven than I’ve ever been
