Chords

This is from Demon Hunter's second album, "Summer of Darkness." I was trying to learn it on this site when I realized the chords in the chorus were actually really easy, so I tried making the rest of it into an acoustic song...and this is what I came up with. I thought it would be nice for some people to be able to hear the same lyrics presented differently. I'll be posting my own recording of it on my profile if you want to actually hear how I play and sing it. I think my guitar's tuned down a half step, as well, just for reference. Here are some funky chords I use in the first and second choruses and the tag...all other chords are either normal chords or power chords exactly as written.

Verse:
   Em                     C              Em           D
Behind the eyes of my compassion lies a suffering soul

    Em                    C               Em           D
And in my blood a bitter darkness slowly taking its toll

Em                           C                           Em
 I feel the death of our connection and the fading of light

                              C                      D
Between the shards of sudden panic from choking on my life

   Em               C                      Em             D
I see the scars of your addiction and the feeling you hide

    Em                  C                       Em        D
A blackened heart from all the hatred you will never rewind

Em                             C                              Em
 Within the depths of your depression hear you pleading for help

                                C                    D
You're just a shell of vacant ruin, a portrait of myself
Prechorus 1:
G          D       Em  C    G       D        A2
I can't breathe alone;     You can guide me home

 I am the face of your affliction

Feeding new life through the cracks in your skull
Verse:
   Em                C                     Em           D
Beneath the skin of your aggression is a thickening fear

    Em                        C             Em             D
A swelling plague from every devastating voice that you hear

Em                             C                              Em
 You feel the throes of contradiction in the world that you left

                       C                          D
Another day in your delusion, the never-ending death
Prechorus 2:
G          D       Em  C    G       D        Em
I can't breathe alone;     You can guide me home

I can feel You here;     You can draw me near

I am the pain of your conviction

Stabbing you right through the back of your soul
