Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Colors  of the sun
Flashing  on the water top
Echo  on the land
Picking  for a coin
Many  other tiny worlds
Singing  past my hand
 Awake  to understand  you are not dreaming
 It is not seeming  just to be this way
 Dying  men draw numbers  in the air
 Dream  to conquer little bits of time
 Scuffle  with the crowd  to get their share
 And  fall behind their little bits of time
Voices  in the air
Sympathetic  harmony
Coming  from the trees
Hanging  at my door
Many  shiny surfaces
Clinging  in the breeze
   Oh, leave me  where I am I  am not losing
 If I am choosing  not to plan my life
 Disillusioned  saviors  search the sky
 Wanting  just to show someone the way
 Asking  all the people  passing by
 Doesn't  anybody want the way
 I  say goodbye to Joseph  and Maria
 They  think I see  another sky
 And  from my fallen window  I still see them
 I'll  never free them from the sky
