Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Build  me up, don't get me down
 Weather the storm
 Well, life  goes on
Feelings  ebb and flow by hours
 You're up in the clouds
 and then you sink  like a stone
 So do you feed  yourself with pills?
 Hope to deaden  your ills
 Or are you  only one love short
of  happiness
 And in a picture  on the wall
 No glimmer  of yourself at all
 You've left  yourself far away
Build  me up, don't mop my brow
 Weather the storm?  No...
 Because life  goes on
It's  my only hope right now
 To soar like a bird
 and not to sink  like a stone
 So do you feed  yourself with pills?
 Oh, to deaden  your ills?
 Or are you only one  love short
 Of happiness
 And in a picture  on the wall
 No glimmer  of yourself at all
 You've left  yourself far away
 
 Oh, so do you feed  yourself with pills?
 To cure you  of your ills
 Or are you only  one love short
 Of the happy  days to come
 And in a picture  on the wall
 You can't see  your face at all
 So unti  yourself
 Because that's  all you've got to do
 And I can grow  a pair of wings
 And I can take  off flying
 There'll be no crying
Up  in the air, looking back down
 And let me tell you, if I talk  about gloom
 I don't get out  of feeling down
 It strips  you of yourself
 and it splits  you from the self that you know...
