Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 (  few times)
Staring  out the window in somebody’s  pick up truck,
 Well I never  mind the boredom cause I use  I for a crutch,
 Just to get  me to that plane it’s a different  state of sane,
 And every  time I try to change I always end  out quite the same,
 Thinking  back to happier  days everyone  was ignorant and all  the kids behaved,
 But me,  my friends, and the ice  cream man,
 That  was our existence,
 That  was our clan,
 This  one goes out to the friends I never had!
 Hey  I don't  understand  (but I'd like  to anyway)
 Hey  I don't  understand  (but I like  it anyway)
 Hey  I don't  understand  (but I like  you anyway)
 Shelter  in the city we decided  to go in,
 And I gave  a man some money to buy  us heroin,
 The homeless  man returned and he gave  me back a dime, he said,
 "Put  it in your sock my friend and save  it for another time,"
Lessons  are learned and later  unlearned,
 And if he  knew what he knows now,
 Well he  could rule the world,
 But I'm  not one to judge,
 What happened  yesterday,
 Cause I  got me, I got myself, my future  is at stake.
This  one goes out to the friends I never had!
