Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Four main chords:
   I asleep?
   Is this a dream?
   Oh my God, what have I  done?
 Any  thing?
   At twenty-three,
 You  walked out on me.
   Oh my God, where have you  gone?
 Any  way?
 On the  ocean,
 I think I'm taking on  water.
 The storm is on the  way,
 But I will hold on  anyway.
   Ten thousand leagues,
   under the sea,
   Oh my God, what have you  done?
 Any  thing?
 Verse with Alternate melody:
   Twenty nine years,
 I've wondered around,
 There's no  beauty here,
 No emerald town,
   I shout aloud, "What will be for  gotten?
 Every  thing?"
 On the  ocean,
 I think I'm taking on  water.
 The storm is on the  way,
 But I will hold on  anyway.
   I close my eyes and there's someone beside me.
   Hand in hand we can only speak in  tongues.
 She's pulling me a  long.
   Follow her down, a trail of crumbs behind me,
 My  head's in her hands,
 But everything, it still feels  wrong.
 This isn't what I  thought,
 So can I just go  home?
 Piano interlude:
 Numma-nummas:  (softly)
   Am I asleep?
   Is this a dream?
   Oh my God, what have I  done?
 Any  thing?
 (ROUND)
 On the  ocean,
 Ten thousand leagues,
 I think I'm taking on  water,
 Under the sea,
 The storm is on the  way,
 Oh my God, what have you done?
 But I will be? you?  anyway.
 Anything?
 On the  ocean
