Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Four  years and twenty-two  shades of blonde
Is  all that seperated  us
Why  couldn't we have carried  on?
We  could have got married
You  could have carried some of my sons
 (Same chords throughout)
 You let me change the radio
 Station in your car
 Do you remember that time
 I raised my voice
 Because you said you'd never ever heard of the La's
 You continued to get intimidated
 But then your finger tips wrapped round those knuckles of mine
 The fear walked home and your smile returned
 And all of a sudden everything was fine
 But those days have passed
 And these types of relationship never last
 So please don't  pretend  that we'll stay friends
 (SAME AS ABOVE)
 Because you know as well as I do that that, well that just, it never happens
 Well no, that just never happens
 How come I always see you out
 With those boys that we used to argue about?
 You walk over all flustered and stuff
 Telling everyone inside
 That you've had enough
 You spend eighty five per cent of your night
 Trying to make me understand
 Why you were standing so close while you're kissing him
 Why you left that place holding his hand
 Oh darling, can't you see
 That it's got fuck all to do with me?
 Please don't pretend that we'll stay friends
 Cause you know as well as I do that that, well that just, it never happens
