Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Ooh...  Ooh...
Take  me, take  me
Out  into the night
Show  me, show  me
Wonders  and delights
 Faces round a fire
Lights  across the sky
 The witching hour
 They're calling me now
I  know who you are
Hold  me, hold  me
I  am like a child
Waiting, waiting
Motionless  and wired
 For the night to pass
Whispers  in the dark
 The witching hour
 They're calling me now
I  know who you are
 Who you are
 And those I love
 Will carry  me home
 Will carry  me home
 And those I love
 Will carry  me home
 Will carry  me home
 And those I love
 Will carry  me home
 Will carry  me home
 And those I love
 Will carry  me home
 Will carry  me home
 The //  is a chord succession: play a  (320003),
 a brief Gadd9 (3x0203) (just move your finger),
 and then a G again (release your finger). It's pretty easy
 to figure out while listening to the song.
 The same goes to //.
