Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 A line of strands  to mark the trail
No  one said  it would be  easy
 I must admit
 I thought that risk  was better
waged  in younger  seasons
 And all these years  in the cold
 play hell  on the throat
 Until everything  I say
 burns like cinders
 But it's hard  to belong
 to a girl  or a song
 In the crease  of a strangling  winter
 It's strange  to be lost
 Stranger still  to be lone  on
  R
 the strings of a twisting line
 Along the way  the
 turns are sharp
No  one said  they
 would be easy
 I must admit
 I thought the trip  was better
made  in younger  seasons
 But all these years  in pursuit
 made a man  of a fool
 Till every  word I say is on waver
 Well it's hard  to belong
 To a girl  or a song
 In the case  of a selfish  believer
 It's strange  to be lost
 Stranger  still to belong  on
 the strings  in a twisting  line
 (Repeat Chorus 2)
 And when the path  I have  made
 From the grass  to the  grave
 I will love  you still
 And when the sand  turns to  glass
 And all that's left  is the  past
 I will love  you still
