Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 after fiddle solo):
 
Six  lanes, tail  lights, red  ants marching into  the night
They  disappear to the left  and right again
Another  supper from  a sack, a ninety-nine  cent heart  attack
I  got a pounding head and and aching  back
 And the camel's  buried  in a big  straw stack
 But I'm  gonna live where the green  grass grows
Watch  my corn pop up  in rows
Every  night be tucked  in close to you
Raise  our kids where the good  Lord's blessed
Point  our rocking chairs towards  the west
Plant  our dreams where the peaceful  river flows
 Where the green  grass  grows
 (repeat intro chords)
Well  I'm from, a map  dot, a stop  sign on a blacktop
I  caught the first bus I  could hop from there
But  all of this glitter is getting  dark
There's  concrete growing in the city  park
I  don't know who my neighbors  are
 And there's bars  on the doors  and bars  on my heart
 LAST CHORUS
 But I'm  gonna live where the green  grass grows
Watch  my corn pop up  in rows
Every  night be tucked  in close to you
Raise  our kids where the good  Lord's blessed
Point  our rocking chairs towards  the west
 --
 Plant our dreams where the peaceful river flows
Ooo,  Where the  green  grass  grows
 Repeat intro progression
