Child Of Midnight 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
