Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Listen  as the wind blows
 from  across the great divide.
 Voices  trapped in yearning
 memories  trapped in time
 (same as above)
 the night is my companion
 and solitude my guide
 would  I spend forever  here
 and  not be satisfied.
 And  I would be  the one
 to  hold you down
 kiss  you so hard
 I'll  take  your breath  away,
 and  after I'd
 wipe  away the tears
  just  close your eyes  dear.
 (same as first verse)
  Through this would I've stumbled
  so many times betrayed
  trying to find an honest word to find
  the truth enslaved,
  oh you speak to me in riddles
 and you speak to me in rhyme
  my body aches to breathe your breath
 your words keep me alive
 Same
 and I would be
 the one to hold you down kiss you so hard I'll take your breath away and
 after I'd wipe away the tears
 just close your eyes dear.
 (same as 1st verse)
 Into this night I wander
 it's morning that I dread
 another day of knowing of
 the path I fear to tread
  on into the sea of waking dreams
 I follow without pride
 nothing  stands between us here
  and  I won't be denied.
  And I would be the
 one to hold you down kiss you so hard I'll take your Fm11
 breath away and after I'd wipe away the tears just close your eyes...
