Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
  If there's a way  to say I'm sorry, perhaps I'll stay  another evening
  Beside your door, and watch  the moon  rise inside  your window
  Where jewels are falling  and  flowers weeping  and  strangers laughing
  Because your dreaming, that I have gone.
  2nd Verse:
  And if I don't know why I'm going, perhaps I'll wait beside the pathway
  Where no one's coming and count the questions I turned away from
  Or closed my eyes to, or had no time for, or passed right over
  Because the answers would shame my pride.
  3rd Verse:
  I've heard them say the word forever, but I don't know
  If words have meaning, when they are promised in fear of losing
  What can't be borrowed or lent in blindness or blessed by pageantry
  Or sold by preachers, while your still walking your separate way.
  4th Verse:
  Sometimes we bind ourselves together, and seldom know
  The harm in binding, the only feeling that cries for freedom
  And needs unfolding and understanding and time for holding
  A simple mirror with one reflection, to call your own.
  5th Verse:
  If there's an end to all our dreaming, perhaps I'll go
  While your still standing, beside your door, and I'll remember
  Your hands encircling a bowl of moon stones, a lamp of childhood
  A robe of roses, because your sorrows were still unborn.
  Note: The song's original key is F- I moved it up a half step
  to the key of G - The G6 in parenthesis is optional and you
  can substitute a C or D chord as well for harmonic variation
  over the static G chord.
  Reflections In A Crystal Wind
  Among the winking metaphors imprisoned in a shifting breeze,
  you come to sense your lovers need for freedom, the question in
  her step, the calling of her folded hands.
