Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
The  night is bright and gay but  I'm so blue
 my heart  must have it's way and dream  of you
that's  why I sigh and sip my lonely wine
 Your picture on the wall your  smiling face
brings  back the memory of  your embrace
I  start to cry into my lonely  wine
Teardrops  fall but all  they bring is heartache
 It's better  if I never  think at all
Still  they soothe the pain  my lonely thoughts  make
 I never  quite succeed in hiding all,  so  let them fall
 Where ever you may be, I'll still be true
 and when the clouds roll by I'll come to you
 but until then I'll drink my lonely wine
 Change key to D and play last verse with the chord sequece:
