My Mistakes Were Made for You  The Last Shadow Puppets

This is what I've figured after listening the acoustic & album version of the
song. The other tabs were close, but a couple chords were off. Comments and corrections welcome :)
Strumming for verses: d-dud-du-ud--udu (listen to it, you'll see what i mean)
Strumming for chorus: d-du d-du d-du
Chords used: Gm, Cm, F, D7, Am, Dm, G, E7
Intro: Gm
Verse I:
[Gm]About as subtle as an ear[Cm]thquake, I know
my [F]mistakes were made for [Gm]you
[(Gm)]& in the back room of a [Cm]bad dream she came
[F]& whisked me away and f[Gm]used
[(Gm)]& it's as solid as a [Gm]rock rolling down a hill
the [Cm]fact is that it prob'ly will hit [F]something
on the hazardous [Gm]terrain
[(Gm)]& we're just following the [Gm]flock 'round and in between
[Cm]before we're smashed to smithereens like [F]they were
and we scramble from the [D7]blame
Chorus:
[(D7)]& it's the [Cm]fame that put words in her mouth
she [D7]couldn't help but spit 'em out
[Cm]innocence & arrogance [D7]entwined in the filthiest of [Gm]minds
Verse II:
[Gm]She was bitten on her [Cm]birthday and now
a [F]face in the crowd she's [Gm]not
[Gm]& I suspect that now for[Cm]ever the shape
she [F]came to escape is for[D7]got
Chorus:
[(D7)]& it's a [Cm]lot to ask her not to sting
& [D7]give her less than ev'rything
a[Cm]round your crooked conscience she will [D7]wind
Bridge: Gm, Am, Dm, G, Am
[(Am)]Cos we're just following the f[Am]lock 'round & in between
be[Dm]fore we're smashed to smithereens like [G]they were
& we scramble from the [E7]blame
Chorus:
[(E7)]& it's the [Dm]fame that put words in her mouth
[E7]she couldn't help but spit 'em out
a[Dm]round your crooked conscience she will [E7]wind
& it's a [Dm]lot to ask her not to sting
& [E7]give her less than everything
[Dm]innocence & arrogance entwined.
end on Am
