Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Under  the dog  star sail
Over  the reefs  of moonshine
Under  the skies  of fall
North,  north west,  the stones of Faroe
 Under the Arctic fire
 Over the seas of silence
 Hauling on frozen ropes
 For all my days remaining
 But would  north be true?
 All colours bleed to red
 Asleep on the ocean's bed
 Drifting in empty seas
 For all my days remaining
 But would  north be true?
 Why should I?
  Why should I cry  for you?
Dark  angels follow  me
Over  a godless  sea
Mountains  of endless  falling,
For  all  my days remaining,
 What  would be true?
Sometimes  I see  your face,
The  stars seem to lose  their place
Why  must I think  of you?
Why  must I?
 Why should I?
 Why should I cry  for you?
Why  would you want  me to?
And  what would it mean  to say,
That,  "I loved  you in my fashion"?
What  would be true?
Why  should I?
 Why should I cry  for you?
