Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Give  up the ghost
Hold  me close
Sing  me the song that you  love most
The  words hang like diamonds  with music  inside them
Colliding  in time  with your mouth
Find  me alone
Walk  me home
Show  me a world I've  not yet known
The  buildings are breathing  they cry  while they're sleeping
We're  hurting their feelings  somehow
So  send an apology  made of technology
Bricks  turn to circuits instead
Sing  like a microphone, talk  like a telephone
Watch  like a film in your head
Bleed  like a needle
 Don’t listen  to people, they only  say things so that something  gets said
Cough  like a cigarette
Turn  like a tourniquet
Burn  like a fire truck, red
Sleep  like a pillow and wake  like a window
 In winter  with snow-covered ledge
The  birds will return soon to bend  round your bedroom
While  radios talk to the dead
Will  you dream like bed, dream like a bed
 (Pause)
 (repeat previous chord pattern)
 Whisper and speak
 Touch my cheek
 Show me the smile that makes me weak
 Cars crash whenever we kiss everything vanishes
 Sweetness is all I feel
 Write on my hand
 Understand
 Breathe in the way only you can
 You know that you are both the love note caught in my throat and the hope that it’s real
 So end like a funeral send out the usual static release from your lungs
 Swallow like medicine I think you’re better that anything under the sun
 Oh, life re-mystified
 Oh, walking valentine
 Oh, unimaginable love
 Smoke like a factory, steal my identity
 Sell it right back to me now
 Break like tradition in need of revision
 Transmissions will listen like sound
 Think like a memory, warm and Septembery
 Endlessly coming unwound
 ‘Till you find yourself out with the graves in the ground
 Tears rolling out of eyes as wet as a cloud
 But it’s only the sound of your joy coming down
