Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 When the wagons  leave the city
 for the forest,  and further on
 Painted wagons  of the morning
 dusty roads  where they have gone
 Sometimes travelling  through the  darkness
 met the summer  coming home
 Fallen faces  by the wayside
 Looked as if  they might have known
 O the sun  was in their  eyes
 and the  desert that dries
 In the country towns
 where the laughter sounds
 O the dancing  and the singing
 O the music  when they played
 O the fires  that they started
 O the girls  with no regret
 Sometimes  they found it
 Sometimes they kept  it
 Often lost  it on the way
 Fought each other  to possess  it
 Sometimes  died in sight of  day
 O the sun  was in their  eyes
 and the  desert that dries
 In the country towns
 where the laughter sounds
