Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
We  were young in the days  of grunge
 When the music  came from  pain
We  smoked cigarettes  at lunch
 And dressed  like  Kurt Cobain
Manic  depression  was in style
 And  so was  heroin
My  friends and me we had apathy
 In the good  ole  days of  grunge
 Sally Dutch didn't talk much
 She hated her middle name
 But your shoulder would get punched
 If you took the lord's name in vain
 Her father was an evil man
 That should have gone to jail
 He'd say “Jezebel don't you ever tell
 God's little whores go to hell”
 Stuart McCann was a ladies man
 So he wanted us to believe
 We would see him hand in hand
 With a new girlfriend each week
 His father was a broken soul
 And his mother a hateful hag
 Poor old Stu would come unglued
 If you called him a fag
 Lucy Potter the preacher's daughter
 Was daddy's little girl
 Righteously raised in a cave
 And sheltered from the world
 Jocks and preps and dumb rednecks
 Would tease her on a dare
 She thought babies came from storks and claimed
 A blowjob was drying your hair
 Dirty Russ was an ugly cuss
 He didn't bathe or brush his teeth
 You couldn't be around him 'cause
 He made it hard to breathe
 Everyone made fun of him
 But little did they know
 He lived in a van with his old man
 Who drank up all the dough
 Well I guess we got depressed
 In April of '94
 Some heroes fall some heroes die
 Some ain't heroes no more
 Now that I think about my friends
 I don't know who's dead or alive
 'Cause I never saw a one at all
 Since May of '95
