When We Tried To Get You To Settle Down Chords

(ver. 1)
The Vasco Era
Great song by a great band.
All the chords can be played either as barre chords or not. I personally play the 
G as a barre but not the others. Below is the Asus4 depending on which way you play it.

Asus4:
E|-0-|   or   E|-x-|
B|-3-|        B|-5-| 
G|-2-|        B|-7-|
D|-2-|        D|-7-|
A|-0-|        A|-7-|
E|-0-|        E|-5-|  

The D* C* and G* at the end of each chorus are strummed as a single note each, but 
are otherwise normal. 

Intro:
e|-------7----8--------8----8--------8----8--8----8-------|
B|----8-----8-------8-----8-------8-----8------8----8-----|
G|-7-------------5-------------5----------------------5---|X4
D|--------------------------------------------------------|  
A|--------------------------------------------------------|  
E|--------------------------------------------------------|   

Verse 1:
            D        A
Are you gonna get confused
             G                               Asus4    A
And let him take you out and leave you all alone?
               D         A
Ah, 'cause its been too long
           G                         Asus4    A
You gotta settle down, baby, for a while

Ah, 'cause its some kind of blues

'Cause I ain't gonna live in a broke home
