Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I got a call from my old writing partner.. Jeff... and you know..
 we were kinda drinkin talkin to each other on the phone and
 he goes “Ya know I betcha that I can name a subject that you
 can’t write a song about.” I said “Alright fucker, let's hear
 it, what da ya got?” And he goes “ How ‘bout, uh, a homeless
 guy.” And I said “easy”. And he said “who is French
 ” LAUGHTER
  Let’s give it a shot.. If this doesn’t go over I owe him a
 lot of money.
 My story  is so tiresome…  (tiresome)
 Back in France  I was rich as they  come… (as they come)
 But I lost  all my wealth and my good  mental health
 Now I live  with zee filth and zee scum…  (and zee scum)
 I’m Pierre  the only French bum  in New York
 When I open  my Boone’s Farm I still  schniff zee cork.
 So have  you a quarter, I’m begging  you please
 I have to have wine  with my government  cheese.
 I really  should bid you adieu…  (adieu)
 I’m feeling  a bit sac le blu…  (sac le blu)
 My life  is a hell I give off  a bad smell
 but I’m French  oh that’s always been true.  PIU!!!
 FYI: I enjoyed this song so much that I wanted to
 figure it out and play it for my friends an fam.
 This is my first-ever post online of a tab/chord.
 I use this site often especially for Lynch chords
 so I felt that it would be right to give back.
