Iris Acoustic chords

Iris Acoustic

• D5

Hey guys this is my first attempt at tabbing out a song and I decided to pick out 
one of my favorites...
I know that there are a ton of other tabs telling you how to play this amazing 
song, but none of them are 
anywhere close to being played in standard and the ones that are don't sound right to me.
So this is my attempt at tabbing out this song, and I think I got pretty close for 
for the tuning its in... 

Here's a video of my playing and singing it if that helps:

         D        D5            G5  
And I'd give up forever to touch you
         Bm7           Asus4      G5  
'Cause I know that you feel me somehow
           D         D5          G5
Your the closest to heaven that I'll ever be
       Bm7         Asus4         G5
And I don't wanna go home right now
     D         D5             G5
And all I can taste is this moment
    Bm7         Asus4          G             
And all I can breathe is your life
        D         D5        G

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
        Bm7       Asus4        G5
When everything's made to be broken
        Bm7        Asus4      G5
I just want you to know who I am

Verse 2:
         D               D5                G5  
And you can't fight the tears that ain't comin'
         Bm7      Asus4          G 
Or the moments of truth in your lies
         D       D5              G5  
When everything feels like the movies
         Bm7           Asus4      G 
Yeah you bleed just to know your alive

'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
        Bm7       Asus4       G5
When everything's made to be broken
       Bm7         Asus4      G5
I just want you to know who I am
