[Verse 1]
D
Here I am waiting
I'll have to leave soon
G A
Why am I holding on
D
We knew this day would come
We knew it all along
G A
How did it come so fast
[Pre-chorus]
Bm G
This is our last night
D
But it's late
G A Bm
And I'm trying not to sleep
G
Cause I know
D
When I wake
G A D
I will have to slip away
[Chorus]
D Bm
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
G D
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close
D Bm
Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
G D
But tonight I need to hold you so close
D Bm G D
Oh-woah, Oh-woah, Oh-woah Ohhhhhh
D Bm G D
Oh-woah, Oh-woah, Oh-woah Ohhhhhh
[Verse 2]
D
Here I am staring
At your perfection
G
In my arms
A
So beautiful
D
The sky is getting bright
The stars are burning out
G
Somebody
A
Slow it down
[Pre-chorus]
Bm G
This is way too hard
D
Cause I know
G A
When the sun comes up
Bm
I will leave
G D
This is my last glance
G A D
That will soon be memory
[Chorus]
D Bm
And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
G D
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close

Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own

I never wanted to stop
Because I don't want to
G D
Start all over, Start all over
A
I was afraid of the dark
But now it's all that I want
G D
All that I want, All that I want
[Chorus]

And when the daylight comes I'll have to go
G D
But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close

Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own
G D
But tonight I need to hold you so close

And when the daylight comes I'll have to go

But tonight I'm gonna hold you so close

Cause in the daylight we'll be on our own

But tonight I need to hold you so close

Oh-woah, Oh-woah, Oh-woah Ohhhhhh

Have absolutely fallen in love with this song, thanks for putting up the chords :)
But, if someone could help.. I don't think the A sounds completely right.. I'm just a beginner so I can't figure it out haha. Is there another option for a chord in its place?

Chord forms are correct but the recording is in C# major. you can transpose it until it hits C# as the first chord and play along fine with the recording. They play the barred C# major at 4th fret in the intro (and probably or the rest of the song too). You could also Capo 4th fret and transpose it to have the first chord be A major. Depends on your chord knowledge and your ability with barre chords.

The recorded version is actually capo 1 in the key of Eb. Chords are relative to capo.
D-G-A for verse
D-G-Bm-G for prechorus
D-Bm-G-A for chorus
A-Bm-G-D-A-Bm-G for bridge
