Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 When the fog  comes through the golden gate
 and the moon  shines on the bay
 and everything  has changed
 now that you have gone away
 things are getting darker
 and its harder for me to see
 and now you're an angel
 looking over me
 x2]
Back  up, back up, let's fucking go!
Beat  up, keyed up, that's  rock'n'roll
 sad but true but the list is too long
 if i had to name you all it wouldnt be fit in this song
 this magnums got me thinkin and its making me pissed
 your lives were taken to early and you will always be missed
 all the mothers who cry and the fathers who mourn
 for every lifes that taken theres another child born
 that doesn't make it better and it doesn't make it right
 I'm just thankful everyday that you came in my life
 In a dream you take a trip
 down Shattuck to Durant
 up the hill, to the steps, Sproul Plaza and Telegraph
 you pass Channing you pass Derby
 you go to Ashby down to Adeleine
 take mlk to fifty-fourth and go down
 to Genoa yeah and follow the bart tracks
 to Harmon street ahhh Harmon street
 Harmon street Harmon street
 yeah it's reoccurring it's like a dream
 I live a thousand times yeah
 and it's always like the very first time
 as time goes on I can never forget
 all the times we had memories i protect
 seems like yesterday when i last saw your face
 you're no longer here and no one can replace
 all the times we had wish they could happen again
 I'll hold you in my heart in my heart to the end
 if I could make a change it'd be me not you
 so hard to sit and cope, so sad but true
