Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I'm  not an artist, I'm an asshole without  a job,
 making money off  alcohol.
Making  money off calling myself  out,
 "Look at me! A fraud, a phony!"
Entertainer-  that's  all you'll ever become.
You're  no artist -  you're a musician.
So  entertain  us,  come on and sing us a song.
Keep  the customers  drunk.
I'm  not a writer, I'm a kid with  a guitar,
 and a notebook  of scattered thoughts.
Hum  a tune, strum the blues, write  some cryptic words.
 Whatever works to get you to the  next verse.
Entertainer-  and once  the curtains are drawn
you're  screaming contradiction.
So  entertain  us, come  on, sing us a  song
The  customer's  never wrong
I'm  not a singer, I'm the one with  the microphone.
 I've been making  shit up as I go.
I'm  not a singer - they handed me a  microphone,
 said "Play along! the show's gotta  go on!"
 And the show must  go on
"Entertain  us! Entertain  us!"
Give  the customers  what they want.
Entertainer-  you're  so down in the  mouth,
but  sales are up this  month.
