In The Dark I See Chords

(ver. 1)
Lights
This is for one of LIGHTS’ songs that haven’t been released but she played it in 
one of her video blogs. I absolutely fell in love with it and I decided that I had 
to learn how to play it so I gave it a shot. The song is a pretty simple one, it 
has five basic chords + a few odd ones in the outro. It's my first time tabbing 
out a song by ear/watching her video so please leave me feedback! Thanks :)
 
Tuning: Standard
Capo: 4th or 6th (LIGHTS plays it on the 6th)
Strum pattern: She hammers on/off with her middle finger when playing C/G and Em, 
listen to the song for a better idea of the strum pattern. 
* = single strum
~ = let it ring

Chords (all relative to the capo, from E to e):
C/G - 332010
Em - 022000
Am - 002210
F - 133211 or x03211
G - 320033

Introduction: (C/G Em) x2

Verse 1: 
C/G                        Em
Here in the stillness, the quiet place
C/G                    Em
Where I’m lying with a down turned face
Am                       Em*    
You come and distract me from what’s coming at me
C/G                       Em
Give me something to look forward to 
C/G                     Em
Truth be told sometimes it’s only you

Pre-Chorus 1: 
Am                      
Nothing is at stake here
Em~
When we are awake here

Chorus: 
F
It’s you who brings the morning
  Am                             Em
And you who takes the sun when I sleep
G                                    F
You’re the only one who stuck around for me                                
                   C/G                             Em
When I was losing, faith in what I thought I would be
G                                 C/G
You’re the only one in the dark I see 
           Am              Em     G
The dark I see~ the dark I see

Verse 2: 
C/G                       Em
I know I lose my heart so easily 
C/G                     Em
Trying to only show the best of me
Am                         Em*
And I go into hiding, each time I stop trying
    C/G                        Em
Oh, you remind me of the little things
C/G                           Em
‘Til I forget the part that’s troubling

Pre-Chorus 2:
Am
And I feel so much better
Em~
When we are together

Chorus: 
F
It’s you who brings the morning
  Am                             Em
And you who takes the sun when I sleep
G                                    F
You’re the only one who stuck around for me                                
                   C/G                             Em
When I was losing, faith in what I thought I would be
G                                 C/G
You’re the only one in the dark I see 
           Am                Em       G
The dark I see-e, the dark I see~

Outro: 
           F5 (x33011)*
Cause it’s you who brings the morning
       C/G                       G(x55430)
And you who takes the sun when I sleep
           Em                            C/G
You’re the only one who stuck around for me        
                   Am                              Em
When I was losing, faith in what I thought I would be~
  G                               C/G
You’re the only one in the dark I see~
