Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
And  the light of a fading  star
Is  what you were,  is  what you are
Like  the glow that christens  the moon
You  shone too soon,  you  shone too soon
Oh  when will this war be over?
And  the madness leaves the air
This  brick that's found between us
And  the pulling of the hair
But  if there's a  reason
I  don't need to know  right now
 And the light of a fading star
 Is what you were, is what you are
 Like the glow that christens the moon
 You shone too soon, you shone too soon
 Volunteers are soon forgotten
 And many more of us shall die
 The sick still feed the hungry
 And the last battle song has cried
 But if there's a reason
 I don't need to know right now
 And the light of a fading star
 Is what you were, is what you are
 Like the glow that christens the moon
 You shone too soon, you shone too soon
Oh  and I  always thought
That  you,  you wanted  me
Oh  and I  always thought some  how
That  you,  you wanted  me
 Ahhh, but if there's a reason
 I don't need to know right now
 'Cause beyond the pale eyes' evening
 And the shadow of the cloud
 And the light of a fading star
 Is what you were, is what you are
 Like the glow that christens the moon
 You shone too soon, you shone too soon
 And the light of a fading star
 Is what you were, is what you are
 Like the glow that christens the moon
 You shone too soon, you shone too soon
 And the light of a fading star
 Is what you were, is what you are
