Skydiggers - Truth About Us chords

Highlighted       Show chord diagrams
Can't find the lyrics anywhere, so I did my best, been wanting to play this for a 
long time, sounds about right to me.  
the D is a C chord shape slid up to the 5th fret like so (at least, thats what is done live).  
Listen to the song for pace/strum pattern, I tried to get the chords lined up on 
exactly the right words, 
but where I put them and this tab submission thing puts them are two very different places.

 D
e- 0
B- 3
G- 0
D- 4
A- 5
E- x

Intro: G
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/s/skydiggers/265174.html ]
G
When we rode into town we didnt have horses
G
We had fate by the balls and destinys face turned in
C
We settled for less on loves dusty trail
G
We wanted something more than just an ok coral
D			                        	           C
Take the skeletons from the closet, put em under the floor
D			                                       C
Lets settle up on boothill to the view we adore
G
Heres the truth about us, we get exhumed by assumption
G
We have to work hard, have to get on a talk show
C
Let the host root around, see where it goes
G
If thats too far well bust a chair right over his nose
D			                                          C
Take a bite of the big apple while the room is for free
D			          	                    	 C
Spit the pulp into the Hudson like it was British tea
     Am		                    G				        
Aw marina, marina, its sad and its lonely, 
D			                               Em
when your pointing the gun at the president
	Am		                   G			    
Im a flunky with a rifle, Im an NRA golden boy
D		                       Em
a genius forging a legend
G
Heres the truth about us, we came in demanding
G
A scarlet face wrung battle southern bell - ?
C
I let Hoover reply, left me hard to pay
G
The truth about us is buried deep in Connolys lake
D		                                             C
Open all the coffins, only one thing inside	
D				                            C
A pink dress and a pillbox hat with Camelot tags
        Am		             G
Aw marina, marina, its cold and its lonely
D				               Em
When the porters are carrying your coffin
Am				                 G
Oh please baby please let the coincidence leave me
D			                       Em
A martyr to patriotic negligence
G			                D             		                 G      C
Should old acquaintance be forgot and never brought to trial
Am				                             G
Where every girl and boy can grow up to be the president
D				                       Em
Or grow up to be the presidents killer
Am				                        G
Its equal opportunity, its the land of hope and glory
D				                      Em
Its a cheap Italian mail order thriller
G
Heres the truth about us, we sailed from Manhatten
G
We were hoping to find the tears from Ellis island
C
Send them back from the shore, send them back out to see
G
How a promise can grow smaller if the two sides agree
D					                        C
We sent them packing off to Auschwitz when we heard the reports
D		
We wrote how dare you with their ashes
C
As if we couldnt have known
Am			                             G
Ya see marina, marina, I took lessons from my country
D				                              Em
About national interest and the big picture
Am			                               G
Gonna manifest my destiny, gonna spread the legs of misery
D				                         Em
Got a piece in my hand and Im loaded
G
Well the truth about us aint hard to figure
G
Well its adding up to a hell of a toll on us
C
We been up all night, let the tympani roll
G
Facts in paper pledges turned to solid gold
D				                           C
Pick up your guns from the thug in classroom B
D				              	            	   C
Theres people out there whose lives depend on our misery, misery
G
Its the truth about us...
