To sound better you can hammer the 3th chord of the 2th fret when doing C.
[Verse 1]
Am
Daylight had spoken
C/G Cmaj7/G
So clear and so plain
Fmaj7/C Csus4 Am
I'm the keeper of nothing
Am
But an old flame
C/G Cmaj7/G
Consuming the shadows
Fmaj7/C Csus4 Am
Caught in the light
Am G
Blinded by hunger
Am Am7/E
And fed to the night
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C G Am
Darling, you came to me like a dream in this endless blight
[Instrumental Chorus]
Am C/G Cmaj7/G Fmaj7/C Csus4 Am
[Verse 2]
Am
My heart was reaching
C/G Cmaj7/G
So tangled, entwined
Fmaj7/C
Like vines in the willow
Csus4 Am
Serpentine killer, bound by his climbs
C/G Cmaj7/G
Glory was calling
Fmaj7/C Csus4
She wailed and she whined
Am A5/E G
Higher and higher
Am Am7/E
"Leave it all behind"
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C G Am
Darling, you came to me in the glory I'd longed to find
[Instrumental Chorus]
Am C/G Cmaj7/G Fmaj7/C Csus4 Am
[Verse 3]
Am
My search was unending
C/G Cmaj7/G
And my soul was bare
Fmaj7/C Csus4 Am
And Darling, you came to me like a midnight flare
C/G Cmaj7/G
Out of the ocean
Fmaj7/C Csus4
The stars had all gone
Am G
My heart was broken
Am Am7/E
Lost and alone
[Coda]
C/G Cmaj7/G Am
Darling, you came to me like a beacon, leading me home
[Outro]
Am C/G Cmaj7/G Fmaj7/C Csus4 Am
