Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I was running  late for work
 So I didn't  change my shirt
 The evening's drinks  left a
 lingering taste  in my mouth
 And when I left  you were fast asleep
Tangled  in the sheets,
 and on the bus
 I could've sworn  it was all a dream
 That didn't happen to me
 And then  I felt the scrapes
 From the slippery  subway grate.
 Oh how you laughed
 At my complete  lack of grace.
 But I  could not recall
 A more  perfect fall
 Cause when I looked up
 into your eyes  it didn't hurt at all.
 And I thought,  be still my heart
 This could  be a brand new start, with you.
 And it will be clear  if I wake  up
 and you're still here  with me  in the morning.
 And I thought,  be still my heart
 This could  be a brand new start, with you.
 And it will be clear  if I wake  up
 and you're still here  with me  (in the morning)
Be  still my heart
 This could  be a brand new start, with you.
 And it will be clear  if I wake  up
 and you're still here  with me  in the morning.
