Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I see the sun  setting over America
 Trying to leave my darker side behind
 Feeling my way down a blue desert highway
 Wish my rear view mirror could tell me a lie, c'mon
 The harder I fight the stronger it's a comin'
 I wipe the tears from my eyes and I keep on strumming
 Baby, I ain't running away
 Just trying to find you something better inside me
 Now my second  home is a third world cantina I spend years  alone every day I don't see ya
 And to me  the sunset sinking in the sea looks like  my own bleeding corazon
 There's a man walking over here
 He's selling silver and souveniers
 I will pay full price  for your name on a grain of rice
 I am a father, a son, a restless spirt,
 I can see the light but I can never get near it, now
 What good is my love song if you ain't around to hear it?
 I see the fighter  planes tearing 'cross the desert sky
 Do I curse  them or cheer them on I still can't decide
 But the silence they leave behind  sounds like what I feel inside
 x4
