Chords

So, for as many times as I've listened to this, and how much I love it, these chords seem pretty accurate, but if you notice anything wrong, let me know.

C
She got down on hands and knees,

     Gsus           F
One ear against the ground,

        C
Holding her breath to hear something,

          Gsus          F
But the dirt made not a sound tonight

C                          Gsus                  F
Echoes of songs still lurk on distant foreign shores,

         C                                  Gsus             F
Where we danced just to please the gods that only ask for more,

      Am
So it goes

             G                   F
But still we give ourselves to this

F
We can't spend our lives waiting to live

C
On cold nights

Gsus
In a prayer for dawn

Am
But daylight

F
Isn't what she wants

C
The concrete

Gsus
Calls my name again

Am
I'm falling

F
Through the cracks I slip

C
The postcard says wish you were here

         Gsus         F
But I'd rather I was there,

       C                       Gsus              F
Holding on to the simple things before they disappear,

                 Am
That's what I meant

              G                F
But that was then, and this is now

F
I'll make it up to you somehow

C
On cold nights

Gsus
In a prayer for dawn

Am
But daylight

F
Isn't what she wants

C
The concrete

Gsus
Calls my name again

Am
I'm falling

F
Through the cracks I slip

Am             G
A destination, a fading smile.

C               F
Another station, another mile.

Am               G
Another day gone, I swore that I will.

C
Be there before dawn.

F
So be there, I will.

C
She got down on hands and knees,

    Gsus         F
One ear against the ground,

       C
Holding her breath to hear something,

Gsus         F
Anything at all

F
The dirt whispered, "Child, I'm coming home"

C
On cold nights

Gsus
In a prayer for dawn

Am
But daylight

F
Isn't what she wants

C
The concrete

Gsus
Calls my name again

Am
I'm falling

F
Through the cracks I slip
