Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 A (repeated strumming) to E (let ring)
 With this little pattern on lead (on G sting) 7-9-10-9
turnstiles  on mezzanine
 jet ways and dramamine fiends
 and x-ray machines
 you were hurling through space
 g-forces twisting your face
 breeding superstition
 a fatal premonition
 you know you got to envision
 the fiery crash
oh,  close your eyes and you wake  up
 face stuck to a vinyl  settee
oh,  the line was starting to break  up
 just as you were starting  to say
 (pause then riff)
 something apropos, i don't know.
 on G string) - 6-4-6-4-2-6-4-2
beige  tiles and magazines
 lou dobbs and the cnn team
 turn on every monitor screen
 you were caught in the crossfire
 where every human face has you
 reaching for your mace so it's
 kind of an imposition
 a fatal premonition
 to save  our lives you've got to envision
 to save  all our lives you've got to envision
 and  to save all our lives you've got to envision
 the fiery crash
 it's just  a formality
 why must  i explain?
 just a  nod to mortality
 before you get  on
 before you get on a plane.
oh,  close your eyes and you wake  up
 face stuck to a vinyl  settee
oh,  the line was starting to break  up
 what was that you were going  to say?
