Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 (sung without guitar)
 Did I sleep? Do I dream of cold, silent water
 So deep and dark
 And the wires are singing our song?
 Our song
 As we lay back and stared into cloudless skies
 And the stars up there
 The wires are singing our song
 The wires are singing our song
 1st Verse -
Your  face, now so plain, once  was so lovely
A  beautiful refrain,  dust with stars
 But your smile now  in disguise became a flat  line
 And to never  love again like you did before
Was  all
 Why go  on with it, why go on with it?
Why,  to let it flow,  like water on  snow?
 2nd Verse -
I  know what you want, what you  are thinking
To  drift beyond the pain and out  of reach
 To sit,  be safe and warm inside  your sorrow
 And listen to the slow,  slow morse tapping of the rain
But  it says
 Why go  on with it, why go on with it?
Why,  to let it flow,  like water on  snow?
