Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I remember  my mother’s sister’s husband’s brother
Working  in the goldmine full-time filling in for sunshine
Filing  into tight lines of ordinary beehives
 The door  screams I hate you, hate you hanging  around my blue jeans
Why  is there no breeze, no currency of leaves?
 No current  through the water wire no feelings I can see
 I trust  no emotion; I believe in locomotion
 But I've turned  to rust as we've discussed though I must  have let you down
 too many times in the dirt  and the dust
 (short solo thing; if you just change the chords with this progression while playing
 to the song, you'll get how it goes)
 
 (Then there's another short solo. The chords played for rhythm during this solo are
 as they're the same as the next part.)
 I have no idea  how this happens
 All of my maps have been overthrown
Happenstance  has changed my plans
 So many times my heart  has been outgrown
 Now everybody’s feeling  all alone
 Can’t tell you who I am
 When everybody’s feeling  all alone
 Can’t tell you  who I  am
 (other solo, just follow these chords; they're the same ones as before)
 (And then it does another verse, with the same chords as the first...)
 I am looking forward
 Toward the shadows tracing bones
 Our faces stitched and sewing
 Our houses hemmed into homes
 Trying to be thankful
 Our stories fit into phones
 And our voices lift so easily
 A gift given accidentally
 When we’re not sure
 We’re not alone
