Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Looting the destroyed
 
 Vessels of the sea
 I wondered if the waves
 Had taken all of me
 
 All of me back
 
 Down to the black
 Down to where the worms  reign silent and green
 Silent
 We can do some wrecking here
 
 'Til a little color
 Comes into your face
 We can do some wrecking here
 
 And find something to love
 In this broken  place
 
 This broken place
 And the king is a hand
 And slaps you like a wave
 And shackles you down
 Bound like an anchored chain in the sand
 Sends your ships o the rocks
 Sends the keys to the lock of the chain
 On your heart
 To the mouth of a serpent
 And his scaly glass shards
 He's holding all the cards
 And waiting in the waves
 With the poker face
 And no trail to trace
 No trail to trace
 We can do wrecking here
 'Til a little color comes into your face
 We can do some wrecking here
 And find something to love
 In this broken place
 This broken place
 (Basically it is just the E-B-cm-A progression throughout the entire song)
