Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 (Play these chords by plucking the E or A string,
  followed by the two or three thinner strings, anyway
  listen to the song to get this right, it's pretty easy.)
 This morning  I woke up fucking hating
 this whole damn town  and the sight of your house
Rigged  up with insulin all flowing
 I left without a sound
 Just like  I said I expect no apologies  I've had a grip  on our  longevity
 But I'm losing  count as you add  up doubts and challenge  all that's said
 I walked  and walked and finally found  it
 When comfort's strong  interest wears
 No I ain't snapped  no I ain't broken
 I just don't think I care
 I drew  no response when asked if I  come second best so I won't waste  my time
 on thoughts  of loneliness
 It'll be  alright there's more  to life than counting  every end
 Oh my god I tried
 I tried
 I tried
Oh  I tried
 But leaving  now ain't got  a thing to do  with pride
 You know you can't pretend  when feelings  end unless truth  becomes denial
 x2
 It's senseless to stay for convenience sake and time
 Oh my god I tried
 How I tried
 How I tried
Oh  I tried
 But leaving  now ain't got  a thing to do  with pride

This m[C]orning I woke up fucking ha[Am]ting
this whole damn t[F]own and the sight of your ho[C]use
[C]Rigged up with insulin all fl[Am]owing
I left without a s[G]ound

Just l[F]ike I said I expect no apo[G]logies I've had a [C]grip on o[G]ur longev[Am]ity
But I'm losi[F]ng count as you [G]add up doubts and cha[F]llenge all that's sa[C]id

I wal[C]ked and walked and finally fou[Am]nd it
When comfort's s[F]trong interest w[C]ears
No I ain't snap[C]ped no I ain't b[Am]roken
I just don't think I [G]care

I d[F]rew no response when asked if [G]I come second best so I won't w[C]aste my time
on thoug[G]hts of lone[Am]liness
It'll b[F]e alright there's [G]more to life than co[F]unting every e[C]nd

Oh my god I tr[F]ied
I tr[G]ied
I t[C]ried
[G]Oh I tri[F]ed
But leav[C]ing now ain't g[G]ot a thing to do[F] with pr[C]ide

You know you can't [G]pretend when fee[F]lings end unless tr[C]uth becomes de[G]nial
[G]                             [F]                 [C]                         x2
It's senseless to stay for convenience sake and time

Oh my god I tr[F]ied
How I tri[G]ed
How I [C]tried
[G]Oh I tri[F]ed
But leavi[C]ng now ain't g[G]ot a thing to d[F]o with pr[C]ide
