Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
As  a child with ocean eyes I smiled
 At a world existing just  for me ;
 Without Boxes, borders or boundaries
 I built  dreams ;
 But like  plastic building blocks
 They were knocked down to the ground
 I grew  up
 To a world of compromising
 Analizing what it means to  dream
I  don't really wanna understand
 Everything in my world
 It spoils  the fun for  me
Come  on darling you can take my hand
 Blowing kisses in the wind
 We'll  fly away in our dreams
 From the Boxes  they'll put us in
Who  shall we propose to be ?
 Who am I  supposed to be ?
 With these empty building blocks
 I could make  a thousand  mes
I  don't really wanna understand
 Everything in my world
 It spoils  the fun for  me
Come  on darling you can take my hand
 Blowing kisses in the wind
 We'll  fly away in our dreams
 From the Boxes  they'll put us in
And  I'm told we all fit in
 But why  should I belong to  one thing ?
Who  shall we propose to be ?
 Who am I  supposed to be ?
 With these plastic building blocks
 I could make  a thousand  mes
I  don't really wanna understand
 Everything in my world
 It spoils  the fun for  me
Come  on darling you can take my hand
 Blowing kisses in the wind
 We'll  fly away in our dreams
 From the Boxes  they'll put us in
