Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
They  say time waits for  no man
And  neither does this woman
I've  been trying hard  to understand  what it will be
Many  words have come and  gone and
Still  I’m still holding  on
So  if love remains we  should be this crazy  all this making  me
I’ve  been holding  on
for  way too long
I  can’t go on
You've  got 4 and  20 hours
 Just one  day to prove  to  me
 That your  love has  got the power
 To make me believe
Or  take me where I wanna be
4  and 20  hours!
 simile…
 And that's me …that’s me
 Simile…
 They say Rome wasn’t built in a day~ but hey
 They've got nothing on the patience that its taking me to wait
 See the stain on the hour glass that’s slipping through your hands
 Every grain is starting to hurt from the hurt ?…burning from the chaffs
 I've been holding on
 For way too long
 I can't go on
 You've got 4 and 20 hours
 Just one day to prove to me
 That your love has got the power
 To make me believe
 or take me where I wanna be
 4 and 20 hours
 Oh oo...and that's me
 See
See  every day I
I  walk past my front door
And  I’ve been wishing and hoping
That  today is the day that you
You’re  gonna, you’re gona smile in front of my face and tell me something
Something  worth talking about
Tell  me that you still love me and love aint gonna leave me
 Same as verse…
 Show it for me love
 Show it for me now
 Im gonna need something from you love
 Im gonna need more than flowers
 Bring me something real
 Bring me something to talk about
 Just make me believe in love
 Make me believe that you’re the man for me baby
 Woo bah bah bah bah
 Make me believe it baby
 Don’t leave me standing there by myself
 Don’t leave me standing there
 really love
 I can’t stand it love
 At the end of the song, on the second last measure the orchestra plays two
 chords: on first two parts of that measure the F7sus4(9) chord and on part 3
  and 4 of that measure an F7 chord, then it goes to the last measure to Bb
 major chord…
 Also you can play the notes --------  with over the chords
   (add2)  at then of the Chorus, and notes ------
 with the orchestra at the end of the song (these are the notes the violins
 play) or just harmonize them with thirds or whatever it may work.
 Note: I got the lyrics from another web page and it has many mistakes on it…
 but they just work to play the chords over the song…if someone wants me to
  rectify lyrics, please send the right ones to me…
