These are the chords to my cover of 'Afire Love' by Ed Sheeran (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGzOQpmxBy8)
These chords are ideal for female singers, as I have changed the key to suit a higher vocal range :-)

Capo 3

Verse 1
Em
   Things were all good yesterday
G
   But then the devil took your memory
C
   And if you fell to your death today
                                   Em
I hope that heaven is your resting place
                                      G
I heard the doctors put your chest in pain
                
But then that could've been the medicine
C
   And now you're lying in the bed again
                D
Either way I'll cry with the rest of them


Pre-Chorus
C               Em
  And my father told me girl
              C                          D
It's not your fault he doesn't know your face
C                  Em
  And your not the only one
            C     
Although my grandma used to say
D
  That he used to sing 


Chorus
Em                        C                         Am
  Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last night
              D                                 Em
And we'll lie inside, a little while with you more
                       C                        Am
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
                     D                    Em
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love
                      C                          Am
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
              D                        
For they're designed, to be together oh
Em                        C                            Am
   With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
              D                   Em
And we're set alight, we're afire love 


Fill
Em , C , Am , D
We're afire love, we're afire love


Verse 2
Em
   Things were all good yesterday
G
   But then the devil took your breath away
C
   And now we're left here in pain
                                   
Black suit black tie standing in the rain
Em                              G
   And now my family is one again
                
Stapled together with a stranger and a friend
C
   Look to my mind I should paint it with a pen
D
   Six years old, I remember when


Pre-Chorus
C               Em
  And my father told me girl
              C                          D
It's not your fault he doesn't know your face
C                  Em
  And your not the only one
            C     
Although my grandma used to say
D
  That he used to sing 


Chorus
Em                        C                         Am
  Darling hold me in your arms the way you did last night
              D                                 Em
And we'll lie inside, a little while with you more
                       C                        Am
I could look into your eyes until the sun comes up
                     D                    Em
And we're wrapped in light, in life and love
                      C                          Am
Put your open lips on mine and slowly let them shut
              D                        
For they're designed, to be together oh
Em                        C                            Am
   With your body next to mine our hearts will beat as one
              D                   Em
And we're set alight, we're afire love 


Fill
Em , C , Am , D
We're afire love, we're afire love


Bridge
       Em                     C
And my father, and all of my family
                Am                    D
Rise from their seats to sing, hallelujah 
       Em                     C
And my mother, and all of my family
                Am                    D
Rise from their seats to sing, hallelujah
       Em                      C
And my brother, and all of my family
                Am                    D
Rise from their seats to sing, hallelujah
       Em                     C
And my father, and all of my family
                Am                    D
Rise from their seats to sing, hallelujah
