 I like to play the stanzas going up and down on the chords:
 Bm D 
   

 -------2-----------2------
 -----3---3-------3---3----

 Then strum the chords when at the chorus.
 Bm              D     Bm           D     
  In the dark of night, those small hours,
   Em                  F#         Bm      
 Uncertain and anxious, I need to call you
 (repeat intro once)
 Bm              D         Bm            D     
  Room's full of strangers, some call me friend
       Em               F#       Bm 
 But I wish you were so close to me
                D     Bm           D    
 In the dark of night, those small hours
   Em              F#m      Bm 
 I drift away when I'm with you
                      D       G    
 In the dark of night, (by my side)
                      D       G    
 In the dark of night, (by my side)
 Bm               G               A 
  I wish you were, I wish you were
 Bm              D     Bm             D   
  Here comes the clown, his face is a wall
    Em         F#     Bm 
 No window, no air at all
                D     Bm                D       
 In the dark of night, these faces they haunt me
       Em               F#       Bm 
 But I wish you were so close to me
 A                     D       G    
  In the dark of night, (by my side)
                      D       G    
 In the dark of night, (by my side)
 Bm               G               A 
  I wish you were, I wish you were
                      D       G    
 In the dark of night, (by my side)
                      D       G    
 In the dark of night, (by my side)
 Bm               G               A 
  I wish you were, I wish you were
 Bm              D     Bm                D       
  In the dark of night, those faces they haunt me
       Em               F#         Bm 
 But I wish you were so close to me
       Em            F#    Bm  
 Yes I wish you were by my side
