Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
If  I seem distant,  Baby I am...  Words are like scissors  in your hands
 And theres no script to follow, so  I just close my eyes
 That way it wont hurt  so much, when  we say  goodbye
 I feel just like an actress  up on the stage
 I cant believe,  what Im hearing myself say
 And the porch  light is my spotlight.  So I play  along with this life
 That way it wont hurt  so much, when  we say  goodbye
 Did you ever love  me? Does it even matter?
 Did you even notice  the whole world shatter?
 I just want to hold  you till you know Im sorry
 But I just keep  it all  inside.
 That way it wont hurt  so much, when  we say  goodbye
 My heart feels like a circus...  Its too much to take in
 Its hard to lose love,  but you were my best friend
 So I walk  this high wire...  Alone  tonight
 That way it wont hurt  so much, when  we say  goodbye
 That way it wont hurt  so much, when  we say  goodbye
 That's about it. It should be pretty close the original. This was my first one,
 that I put out in the open.
 I waited four months for someone to do it for me, but guess I just stopped
 waiting.
 You have to play a bit with your fingers to make it sound like it should, when
 playing the first five chords in the verses, but it will come to you since pretty basic stuff.
