Daylight Acoustic ukulele

Daylight Acoustic

• D

Hey everyone!
Had a hankering to learn this song and couldn't find correct sounding tabs, 
so I looked up the song on YouTube and this is what I think it is... 

Tuning: Standard
BPM: 116

The following chord diagrams are the variations I used in the song... 
I figured it out on an acoustic, so if you're playing it on electric, 
I would recommend using power chords...

(KEY - chord:EADGBe)
D:x00232 ... 
G:3x0033 ... 
D/F#:2x0232 ... 
A:x02220 ... 
Bm:x2443x ... 
Asus:x02230 ... 
Em:022033


INTRO:
D

VERSE 1:
D                                            G
Has everything you've counted on

                D/F#                          A
Left you right here with no warning

                     D                           G
Have your dreams become invisible

                D/F#                      A
Wait with me dear till the morning


PRE-CHORUS 1:
Bm            G               Asus           A
Light will make the night burnout


CHORUS:
D      Em    Bm              G
Hold on - daylight is coming

D                      Em
To break the dawn

Bm               G
Daylight is coming


VERSE 2:
D                                        G
The brightest stars are falling down

      D/F#                    A
Is hope lost in the black skies

        D                               G
The darkness must precede the dawn

                D/F#                          A
Wait with me here till the sunrise


PRE-CHORUS 2:
Bm               G                  Asus       A
Wait, your night will soon fade out

Notes:
The last line in verse two is the line he says in the music video on YouTube... 
It's contrary to all the lyric sites I looked at, but that's what he says in the song... 
And I like that line better anyway... And it's my chord chart... So there... Haha...
-
The Asus chord in the two pre-chorus' could be played as a D/F#... 
I like the sound of the D/F# better, but to be true to the recording, 
I put the Asus 'cause I'm pretty sure that's what they play...
-
I palm-muted the verses, crescendoed the pre-choruses, and played full on the choruses, 
except for the broken down one...
