Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  can still remember  when your
city  smelt exciting
I  still get a whiff
 Of that aroma  now and then
Burglary  and fireworks
 The skies  they were alighting
Accidents  and toffee  drops
 And thinking  on the train
 Oh, he was young,  in the frost
No  regard for the cost
 Of saying his feelings
  A C----F#m
 In the moment they were felt
 And if he was calm  like you
Locked  up inside of your loops
 Then he'd know for well
 That all he had to say was
 All he had to say was goodbye
b|-------------------3---------3---------------|
g|---2-4-4-2-----2-4---4-2---4---4-2-2-4-2-4-1-|
d|-4---------4-4-----------4-------------------|
 I think the rest is the same as above, bar the very end when "calm like you" comes in
 the orchestra.
 Summertime made promises
 It knew it couldn't keep
 The fairytale was climbing up
 A mountain far too steep
 Colouring the pictures
 With your loyal hand
 Now I am craving heartbreak
 While you're making your demands
 Oh, he was young, in the frost
 No regard for the cost
 Of saying his feelings
 In the moment they were felt
 And if he was calm like you
 Locked up inside of your loops
 Then he'd know for well
 That all he had to say was
 All he had to say was goodbye
 And if he was calm  like you
Locked  up inside of your loops
 Then he'd know for well
 That all he had to say was
 All he had to say was goodbye
