If Dm seems too plain, feel free to replace it with A#/D, that works well too.
Also, F chord here sounds better on 8th fret (so it would sound like a more natural progression).
If you're feeling extra fancy, consider adding the original bridge after the chorus (or use it as the outro),
with these modulated chords:
And maybe Gmwe fFound D#love Dmright Cmwhere Fwe A#are
...okay, let's get to the song already.
[Verse]
A#  DmWhen your legs don't work like they D#used to beforeF
