The other tabs on this song didn't sound right so I played around with them and
came up with this. These chords sound right to me. I finger pick throughout the
whole song and it's pretty much the same pattern throughout.
For Esus4 pick 4 then 3 and 2 together.
For all the rest pick 5 then 3 and 2 together.

Esus4 E
Before I fall too fast
Esus4 E
Kiss me quick, but make it last
C#m B11 C#m
So I can see how badly this will hurt me
D#m
When you say goodbye
Esus4 E
Keep it sweet, keep it slow
Esus4 E
Let the future pass and don't let go
C#m B11
But tonight I could fall too soon
C#m D#m
To this beautiful moonlight
C#m D#m
But you're so hypnotizing

Your love is where I'm falling
D#m E5
So please don't catch me
Esus4 E
See this heart won't settle down
Esus4 E
Like a child running scared from a clown
C#m B11
I'm terrified of what you do
C#m D#m
My stomach screams just when I look at you
Esus4 E
Run far away, so I can breathe
Esus4 E
Even though you're far from suffocating me
C#m B11
I can't set my hopes too high
C#m D#m
Cause every 'hello' ends with a 'goodbye'
C#m D#m
But you're so hypnotizing

I can't open up my heart without a care
C#m D#m
But here I go, it's what I feel
C#m D#m
And for the first time in my life I know it's real
C#m D#m
But you're so hypnotizing

You've got me laughing while I sing
D#m E5
You've got me smiling in my sleep
