Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 In  the land of the  eternal  night time,  there’s a single lamppost on a  far off hill,  the
people  go to  see if  their own shadows  grow out of their feet and are  with them
still
 (2):
 The  trees outside  tap dance in  our windows while  our ancestors  all roll  in their
graves,  she throws out  four of  her old  dresses for every  one she  saves
 (3):
 And she says these  old things look better in the window I  think id  much rather
imagine them on someone new B

 (1)You’d think the two things could just fit together you think wanting for
 nothing is not a crime
 I feel like whistling but I cant stop smiling, its impossible to do them both at the same time
 (2)So lets take the great novels and tear out their last pages, and then read each
 other’s faces like they’re written in Braille,
  turn all the air that hangs around us to the wind in our sails
 (1) And go x 4
 Pretty simplified, intended for one person playing.
