Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
For  so long  I was out in the cold
 and I taught  myself to  believe  every story I told
 It was fun  hangin' onto the moon,  heading into the sun
 but it's been too long  and now I want to come home
 Came so close, to the edge of defeat
 But I made my way in the shade, keeping out of the heat
 It was fun shooting out at the stars, looking into the sun
 But it's been to long,
 Now i want to come home
Home,  where there's nothing but sweet  surrender
To  the memories  from afar
Home,  to the place where the truth  lies waiting
we  remember  who we are
 For too long, I was out on my own
 Every day I spent trying to prove I could make it alone
 It was fun hanging onto the moon, heading into the sun
 But it's been too long,
 Now I want to come home
 with guitar solo)
 For so long, I was out in the cold
 But I taught myself to believe every story I've told
 It was fun hanging onto the moon, heading into the sun
 But its been too long,
 Now I want to come home
 Yeh it's been too long  and now i want to come home
 Been too long  and now i want to come  home
 Thats all except the guitar riff which features at several points:
