[Intro]
C#m


[Verse 1]
C#m
Tell me once again
A                         E
I could have been anyone, anyone else
C#m                  A         E
Before you made the choice for me
C#m
My feet knew the path
A                 E
We walked in the dark, in the dark
C#m
I never gave a single thought
A                 E
To where it might lead


[Verse 2]
C#m
All those empty rooms
A                   E
We could have been anywhere, anywhere else
C#m                       A     E
Instead I made a bed with apathy
C#m
My heart knew the weight
A                  E
Ten years worth of dust and neglect
C#m
We made our peace with weariness
    A      E
And let it be


[Pre-Chorus]
C#m
The moon will sing a song for me
  B                  A
I loved you like the sun
C#m
Bore the shadows that you made
  B                  A
With no light of my own


[Chorus]
C#m                                      A  E
I shine only with the light you gave me
C#m                                      A  E
I shine only with the light you gave me


[Verse 3]
C#m
Name your courage now
A                   E
We could have had anything, anything else
C#m                             A        E
Instead you hoarded all that’s left of me
C#m
Swallowing your doubt
A                            E
Like swords to the pit of my belly
C#m                              A         E
I want to feel the fire that you kept from me


[Pre-Chorus]
C#m
The moon will sing a song for me
  B                  A
I loved you like the sun
C#m
Bore the shadows that you made
  B                  A
With no light of my own


[Chorus]
C#m                                      A  E
I shine only with the light you gave me
C#m                                      A  E
I shine only with the light you gave me

C#m                                      A                  E
I shine only with the light you gave me  (I could have been anyone, anyone)
C#m                                      A                  E
I shine only with the light you gave me

Down -4 half steps is way easier and closer to (im pretty sure, at least) the original.
On parts like "we could have been anywhere, anywhere else" Am (or whatever note is first played on the next line) should be played on "else". Otherwise it sounds clunky.
The "ooo's" have been forgotten about!! The pattern that's repeated throughout the song works fine for them. :)
