We've Been Had Ukulele

(ver. 1)
Walkmen
What's up, b**ches?

I think this song is great, but I couldn't find any tabs for it.
So I tried to make some sense of it.
Forgive me, it was on piano and I'm not too good at learning by ear.

Capo on 2
(try finger picking to simulate the piano)

        D
I'm a modern guy
        D
I don't care much for the go-go
           D G
or the retro image I see so often
                 G D
telling me to keep trying
                 D
maybe you'll get here someday
                 D    A
keep up the work kid, okay
                 A             D
I close the book on them right there


                A
I see myself change as the days change over
            F            A
I hear the songs and the words don't change
                                   D
I write them out of the book right there
        (I don't know this bit. Suggest please!)
we've been had, you say it's over
sometimes I'm just happy I'm older
we've been had, I know it's over
somehow it got easy to laugh out loud

Other than that you do a repeat of this.
Here's the rest of the lyrics out of generosity.

see me age nineteen
with some dumb haircut from 1960
moving to New York
sitting here with my friends
we're all taking the same steps
seems foolish now
