Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Invisible  company,  a  house of smoke and stale perfume
She  makes her seventh cup of tea,  I  stalk desperately from room to room
Like  two strangers on a train,  neither  one will hardly speak
I  dreamt a dream of  old Havana, she  played the blues upon my grand  piano
You skyjack  my soul, hijack  my screams, kidnap  my baby,  so handsome
 You’ve stolen  my bank  (?) million dollar dreams
 Demanding  my life  as your ransom
 Stamped her foot, clinched her fist, closed her face and slashed her wrist
 I pretend (?), the little (?) bee around my lotus
 Which that we could travel more, life’s become a bloody bore
 It would be so nice to everyone, we’ve never been on holiday
 Little sailor lost in space, navigating through the storms
 How I hope that you will find a place where you can heel the scars
