Chords

I couldn't find any chords online for this truly wonderful song by Jim and Ingrid, so I gave it a go. It's my first tab and I'm sure it's not accurate but it sounds close to right. Comments are more than welcome! Intro - Em9
    Em9                      A4                  /B
She  stood by the window and   let down her hair

C            C/B         A4             A    
  Asked if I knew that I   shouldn't be there

    Em9                       A4                /B
Her lips said goodbye but her   body said stay

C                 C/B      A4        A
  I knew I should go but I stayed anyway

         G            G/F#     Em7
And they   called her child of midnight

         C    
And they   say she'd love

               Dsus2
Whomever she'd find

         G          G/F#   Em7
But when    morning came I loved her

        C                    Dsus2
And she   stayed there in my mind

    Em9                      A4                  /B
She  stood by the window and   let down her hair

C            C/B                 A4    A
  Asked if I thought that it was right

     Em9                     A4              /B
That she give her body and I give my mind

C                 C/B          A
I looked for an answer all the night

         G            G/F#     Em7
And they   called her child of midnight

         C    
And they   say she'd love

               Dsus2
Whomever she'd find

         G          G/F#   Em7
But when    morning came I loved her

        C                    Dsus2
And she   stayed there in my mind

    Em9                      A4                  /B
She  stood by the window and   tied up her hair

C        C/B      A4           A
Acted as if I had   never been there

    Em9                       A4                /B
Her lips said goodbye but her   body said stay

C                 C/B      A4        A
  I knew I should go but I stayed anyway

         G            G/F#     Em7
And they   called her child of midnight

         C    
And they   say she'd love

               Dsus2
Whomever she'd find

         G          G/F#   Em7
But when    morning came I loved her

        C                    Dsus2
And she   stayed there in my mind
