Chords with lyrics

NOTE - I'm posting two different ways to play this. All down to personal
preference on which one you think sounds nicer. Let me know what you all think :)

1] STANDARD TUNING

Intro - Strum E minorEm

E minorEm               D MajorD
All these broken pieces left unglued,
    E minorEm
Should never find their way,
     D MajorD
Into the hands of someone like you.

E minorEm
I'm in the dark,
   C majorC      D MajorD
I'm alone around you.
A augmentedA           E minorEm
I've never been here before,
    C majorC       D MajorD
Nobody here to get me through.
A augmentedA       E minorEm
Oh I'm in the dark.

Strum E minorEm

E minorEm              D MajorD
Every minute shared is never mine,
E minorEm
Frozen in this fog and hiding,
D MajorD
Every second in time.

E minorEm
I'm in the dark,
   C majorC      D MajorD
I'm alone around you.
A augmentedA           E minorEm
I've never been here before,
    C majorC       D MajorD
Nobody here to get me through.

A augmentedA        E minorEm       C majorC
Oh I'm losing my faith in every way,
        D MajorD
That points to you.
A augmentedA       E minorEm
Oh I'm in the dark,
   C majorC      D MajorD
I'm alone around you.
A augmentedA       C majorC
Oh I'm in the dark.

G+G        D MajorD
The more bleak the day,
  A augmentedA    C majorC
The less I behave as if,
E minorEm     D MajorD        C majorC
Everything black can wash away.

G+G     D MajorD    A augmentedA     C majorC
Or can I just trade a dream for a way,
  E minorEm       D MajorD        E minorEm C majorC D MajorD A augmentedA E minorEm C majorC DmDm
To peel back the shade behind the gray?

E minorEm
I'm in the dark,
   C majorC      D MajorD
I'm alone around you.
A augmentedA           E minorEm
I've never been here before,
    C majorC       D MajorD
Nobody here to get me through.
A augmentedA       E minorEm
Oh I'm in the dark,

Outro - Strum E minorEm
