Chords

This is my first attempt to hear by ear and transcribe a song and its chords. Be it a simple song I've only started playing in November of 2011 so I welcome any critique, corrections... and praise ;) Thanks Intro: Dm, F, C - Dm, F, C - Dm, Dm, F - C, F, Dm
Dm           F       C
    When you prey in silence

Dm      F             C
    And see our Jesus stagger

Dm        F                C
    Awake! Take a perfumed candle

Dm           F          C
    And use life like a dagger

Dm           Dm         F
    I'm your accidental protégé

C                 F          Dm
    The gift, the blood, the thrown away

Dm             F         C
    The silver chain has broken?

Dm             F         C
    Goals and dreams fulfill

Dm                F     C
    With emptiness with instinct

Dm             F      C
    With impurity and will

Dm           Dm         F
    I'm your accidental protégé

C                F         Dm
    The grave of love, the yesterday

Dm              F             C
    In this, my year of three winters

Dm                 F              C
    Where orchards fade, fade and fall

Dm           F       C
    Like the loaf of love's new bake

Dm          F          C
    Fallen, beautiful, adored?

Dm           Dm         F
    I'm your accidental protégé

C                 F          Dm
    The gift, the blood, the thrown away

Dm    F                 C
    I thought I found a paradise

Dm                F        C
    But, paradise came and wept

Dm           F                 C
    Like the wind through the, winter's woods

Dm           F          C
    It cowed and took a breath

Dm           Dm         F
    I'm your accidental protégé

C                F         Dm
    The grave of love, the yesterday
Dm, F, C (repeat 4x's)
Dm           Dm         F
    I'm your accidental protégé

C                 F          Dm
    The gift, the blood, the thrown away
Dm, F, C (repeat 4x's to fade)
