Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Tuned 1/2 step down
Chess  is such a difficult game
So many pieces
So  many squares where you can go
So few promises
Never  you mind all the others
 Anticipating  your next move
 I know  it's hard
 'Cause you've got  a lot to do
 Street signs and traffic lights
 Ever confusing the issue
 Stoplight, go right, no U-Turn
 Where's the goddamn exit?
 Never you mind all the others
 Influencing your next move
 I know it's hard
 But you've got a lot to do
La  la la la la laa
La  la la la la laa
La  la la la la laa
La  la la la la laa
 Sex and drugs and rock 'n' roll
 Pieces lie right before you
 This puzzle can't be done wrong
 So come on while you can
 Never you mind all the others
 Anticipating your next move
 Never you mind all the others
 Never you mind what they do
Don't  let them get  you down
'Cause  if they do
You'll  be trapped forever under  their shoe
Here  is a paintbrush so  go
 I know  it's hard
 'Cause you've got  a lot to do

 End on D
