Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Time is running out  as you die,  die, die in this bed not making a sound.
 It has all  come crashing down  to be here,  and watch  you breathe your last.
 So helpless  to stop  you from slipping  away so fast.
 Oh, God, are you listening now?
 As this cancer  dances through her, and then takes a bow.
 It won't  disappoint  the crowd,
 whose words  are a curse,
 as I hear  them one-by-one.
 Please pull  the string,  and I come undone.
 I know this.  I failed to say.  I'm sinking by  your side.
 You're worth this.  I wouldn't trade  a day  to not have gone through this
 So many days  I've been blind.
 I want to stop  and rewind.
 Kick off our shoes  and dance  with the ghost of you.
 Who could tease  me and leave me begging for the abuse?
 You're the only one  I knew  that could tame  me, and make  me who I am.
 But now,  there's self-blaming  and there's nothing  left of all my plans.
 I know this.  I failed to say.  I'm sinking by  your side.
 You're worth this.  I wouldn't trade  a day  to not have gone through this
 So many days  I've been blind.
 I want to stop  and rewind.
 Kick off our shoes  and dance...
 Let's dance again.
 We'll turn up our sleeves.
 I know just where  to begin.
Dance,  let's dance again.
 We could find ourselves before  this  happens...
 These words  of mine are trite  and so cliche.
Still  we find a place in everything.
 It's just  to break the silence  that has been  crushing me.
Half  of me is dead,  already gone.
Half  is screaming everyone  is wrong.
Finally asking now,  will you just hear me out?
 This was all  my fault.
 You brought me death,  and it's everything  I wanted.
 It's the wrong  side of fear  that kept me out.
