Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Eight miles high and  when you touch  down
You  ll find that it s stranger  than known
Signs in  the street, that  say where you re going
Are  somewhere just  being their own
Nowhere is there  warmth to be found
Among  those afraid  of losing their ground
Rain gray town known  for it s sound
In  places small  faces unbound
Round the squares huddled  in storms
Some  laughing some  just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes and  black limousines
Some  living some  standing alone
