Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 As I walk  along these streets
 I see a man  that walks alone
 Distant echo of peoples feet
 He has no place to call his own
 A shot rings out from a roof overhead
 A crackhead asks for change nearby
 An old man lies in an alleyway dead
 A little girl lost just stands there and cries
 What would you  do, if  it was you
 Would you take  everything
 For granted  like you do
 and basically repeat for the rest of the song!
 A boy just 13 on the corner for sale
 Swallows his pride for another hit
 Overpopulation theres no room in jail
 But most of you dont give a shit
 That your daughters are porno stars
 And your sons sell death to kids
 Youre so lost in your little worlds
 Your little worlds youll never fix
 What would you do, if it was you
 Would you take everything
 For granted like you do
 You turn away
 As I walk along the streets
 Soaking up the acid rain
 Underneath the taxi cabs
 I hear the streets cry out in vain
 What would you do, if it was you
 Would you take everything
 For granted like you do

A boy just 13 on the corner for sale
Swallows his pride for another hit
Overpopulation theres no room in jail
But most of you dont give a shit
That your daughters are porno stars
And your sons sell death to kids
Youre so lost in your little worlds
Your little worlds youll never fix

What would you do, if it was you
Would you take everything
For granted like you do

You turn away
As I walk along the streets
Soaking up the acid rain
Underneath the taxi cabs
I hear the streets cry out in vain

What would you do, if it was you
Would you take everything
For granted like you do
