[Intro]
C#m A C#m A
 
[Verse 1]
           C#m
Could it be I was the one
                             A
That you held so deep in the night?
            C#m
On the back staircase
                                          A
You fell to your knees with tears in your eyes
 
 
             F#
All that you suffered, all the disease
             A
You couldn't hide it, hide it from me
 
 
[Verse 2]
           C#m
All alone, scared in your room
                               A
Would you swear there's nobody home?
            C#m
On the bed, laying awake
                             A
As you prayed he'd leave you alone
 
             F#                   A
I'll let the darkness swallow me whole
          F#                     A
I need to find you, need you to know
 
 
[Chorus 1]
C#m           A            F#
I'll be your friend in the daylight again
C#m            A          F#
There we will be, like an old enemy
         A
Like the salt and the sea
 
 
[Instrumental]
C#m A
 
 
[Verse 3]
               C#m
And they wrote all these prescriptions
                         A
They wrote me off like a heel
              C#m
Yeah, the doctors with their medicine
                      A
Left me to rock in my filth
 
         F#                       A
From the destruction, out of the flame
           F#                  A
You need a villain, give me a name
 
 
[Chorus 2]
C#m           A            F#
I'll be your friend in the daylight again
C#m            A          F#
There we will be, like an old enemy
C#m           A            F#
I'll be your friend in the daylight again
C#m            A          F#
There we will be, like an old enemy
         A
Like the salt and the sea
         A
Like the salt and the sea

Very nice, Perfect! For beginers I suggest transposing down 4 with Capo 4.

This was the most accurate chart of the bunch, chord-placement-wise, and as pointed out in another comment, for beginners transpose down 4 half-steps to A minor, and hit the "SIMPLIFY"button. Great chart, 5 Stars.
