Notes:

 -Listening Example:http://youtu.be/Xl7CagWk7SA

  -Sorry this is the best listening example
  i could give you guys :( I learned from the
  version i got of Rhapsody

 -He plucks the bass note with his thumb then
 he uses his other fingers to play the higher 
 strings on the offbeat

  -In the verse he only uses the D & G strings 
  for the high part of the G and Em chords and
  then he uses the D G & B String for the C

 -Capo 4th Fret, sounds like the voicings he's
 getting from him guitar. 

Chord  - E A D G B E
G      - 3(2)0 0 3 3
Em     - 0 2 2 0 0 0

And from the first glance you gave My world it slowed, you stopped the time
            C                                                 G
And in that moment I could see all of the things that we would be
             C                                              G

There's something in your smile that gives me strength to carry on

             C                                                   G
Who could of known the one who'd bring it here would be my lovely wife

        G                                                   Em
I could sing a thousand songs about you still that would not do
          G                                                    Em
There's a million tiny things that make the things that you do, you
           C                                              G
