Smoke Clouds Chords

(ver. 1)
James Arthur
Hi all. This is an amazing song by an amazing artist. If you've never heard this song, 
you can find it at the following url:

I couldn't find any lyrics or chords posted online. But since I just had to learn how to 
play it, I transcribed one myself. I put a "(?)" after words I wasn't too sure about. Enjoy!

A#m D#m G#m F

        A#m
Look no farther than the father's who go farther than they should
       D#m7
To the point where we're surrounded by the scars behind their hoods
    A#m                D#m7
and who no no is gonna teach them wrong from right?

who's gonna tell them it's alright?
F                          D#m7
pass the just (?) cigarette
           F                      D#m7
take these brain cells out my head
        F               D#m7
fill my lungs, drain my heart

CHORUS
            A#m                     D#m7
'cause this smoke cloud's giving me shelter
                G#m
and I feel much better
           F
and demons wave the white flags for me
        A#m                    D#m7
'til my bones keep pleading to walk out
                 G#m
               F
but there's no way that I could leave
           F#
so I don't leave
                       F
turn the bitterness to sweet
                     D#m7   F
I need to find a new release
                   A#m
so I'm trading blues for green
D#m7      G#m
hey no no no no
F
oh no no no no no

    A#m
Now I'm a simple man I don't even have a phone
     D#m7
If I did I wouldn't pick it up I want to be alone
A#m
I don't trust anyone in this one-track town
D#m7
If I walk (?) then my eyes fall down

A#m D#m7                          A#m
Who is gonna teach them wrong from right?
            D#m7
Who's gonna tell them it's alright?
     F                          D#m7
just pass the just (?) cigarette
           F                      D#m7
take these brain cells out my head
        F               D#m7
fill my lungs, drain my heart

CHORUS
            A#m                     D#m7
'cause this smoke cloud's giving me shelter
                G#m
and I feel much better
           F
and demons wave the white flags for me
        A#m                    D#m7
'til my bones keep pleading to walk out
                 G#m
               F
but there's no way that I could leave
           F#
so I don't leave
                       F
turn the bitterness to sweet
                     D#m7   F
I need to find a new release
                   A#m
so I'm trading blues for green
D#m7
Yeah
                   G#m
Oh I'm trading blues for green
           F
and demons wave the white flags for me
        A#m                    D#m7
'til my bones keep pleading to walk out
                 F
                   A#m
so I'm trading blues for green
