Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Lonely  table just for one
 in  a bright and crowded room
 while the music has begun
i  drink to the memories
 in the gloom
 though the music still
 the same
it  has a bitter sweet
 
 so play  the song
 the way it used to be
 before  she left and
 changed it all to sadness
 and maybe  if she's
 passing by the window
 she would hear our
 love  song, and melody
 and even  if the words
 are not so tender
 i will always remember
  G--Gm
 the way it used to be
 friends stop by and said
 hello,  then i laughed
 and hide the pain
 it's quite easy till they go
then  the song begins again
