Spent a couple hours figuring this out. It should be pretty much correct, I'm not sure if william plays it with
a c#m in the chorus but it sounds pretty good to me, so

(I'd suggest watching that to get the strumming pattern right)

Started out a night full of promise
E5
But if I'm perfectly honest
A5 C5 D5
It was too good to be true
E5
I thought we had quite the connection
E5 A5
But I was headed in a different direction from you
C5 D5 A* B
What can I do to thank you?

E5
I was there with my glass half full
E5 A5
You were drinking like a raging bull to get through
C5 D5
An hour or two
E5
Your voice was cutting like a knife in my head
(no chord)
What did you say?
What have I said?
A5 C5 D5 A* B
I wanna make an excuse to thank you

E5
Thanks for the icing on the cake
E5
But it came just a little too late
E5
It's all my fault
E5
My heart's locked up in a vault
E5
And thanks for the trip around the moon
E5
Sorry it had to end so soon
E5
I couldn't breathe
A* B
And air is something I need
E F#m
I've had a great night
C#m A
