Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
Thunder  rumbles in the distance, a  quiet intensity
I  am willful, your insistence is  tugging at the  best of me
I'm  the moon,  you're the water
I  am Mars,  calling up Neptune’s  daughter
Sometimes  rain that’s needed  falls
We  float like two lovers  in a painting  by Chagall
All  around is sky  and blue town
Holding  these flowers  for a wedding gown
We  live so high  above the ground, satellites  surround us.
I  am humbled in this city. There  seems to be an endless  sea
Of  people like us, wakeful dreamers. I  pass them on the sunlit  streets
In  our rooms filled with laughter
We  make hope  from every small  disaster
Everybody  says “you can’t,  you can't, you can't, don’t try.”
Still  everybody says that if  they had the chance they’d fly  like  we do.
