Your heart will be true

To light the day

Thanks for using accents and putting the chords where they belong using spaces. Also, you seem to have played the song at least once as they're in harmony with the lead voice, bit less with the choir. Very good job though. For song proximity I recommend playing straightforward F#m, D, A, E for the verses, D, A, Bm, E for the pre-chorus, A, F#m, D, E; A, E, D, E for the first chorus half and A, F#m, D, E; F#m, D, E, E --> A for the second. But alterations are the spice of life and your version sounds more interesting on the guitar. Cheers.
