Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Bumping  to the sawmill in  a '57 Dodge,
Ease  around Lake Hell and Gone  and up behind the lodge,
 Ring the bell and Sam  will get you in his worn out 9.9,
 Soon you're at the cottage  in those old windblown pines
 All day out at Bonfire Island we'd just hang around,
 Then we'd head over to Maynard's just as soon as the sun went down,
 Called his place the Red Bandanna 'cause he loved that Bobby McGee
 Pass you a Golden and say, "Play that song for me"
 
 And we'd sit on Maynard's  big front porch and we'd play our guitars
 
 That old Coleman  lantern was our moon, fireflies our stars
 
 That whole  summer out on  Healy Lake, the un-i-verse, was ours.
 The chords are the same for the rest of the song.
