Tenerife Sea  Ed Sheeran

This is how Ed played it at Madison Square, and I believe these are the right lyrics.
Here's the video of him singing it that I used:

 ------------------------------------------------------------------

Almost Standard Tuning: (Low to High with no capo)
E-A-D-E-B-E (Just tune the G down to an E)
Capo 4
Chords: (from capo, Low to High)
E - 022000
F#m - 244000
A - x02000
B - x24000
C#m - x46000
On the A chord, he hammers the B string (2nd from highest), second fret - x02020
Technique stuff:
The F#m chord may sound a bit off, but it's the bass note that you should listen for.
Also, think of this song as 4 beats per line, but then subdivide every beat into 6
mini beats. That's how he plucks. For example, say "Cheerio Cheerio" for each
beat. (For those who read music, it's in 4/4 time, but think of individual beats
in 6/8, or as 2 triplets)
He likes to hit the bass note on the first beat of every chord, the G string on
the 2nd triplet (or the Chee of the second Cheerio), then the B string on the "a"
of the 2nd triplet (1+a2+a) (or the "O" of the second Cheerio).

[E] You look so [F#m]wonderful [A]in your dress
[E] I love your [F#m]hair like [A]that
[E] The way it [F#m]falls on the [A]side of your neck
[C#m] Down your [B]shoulders and [A]back
[E] We are su[F#m]rrounded by a[A]ll of these lies
And [E]people who [F#m]talk too [A]much
[E] You've got the k[F#m]ind of l[A]ook in your eyes
As if n[C#m]o one knows [B]anything but [A]us
And[A] should this be the[E] last thing I[B] see
I [A]want you to know it's e[E]nough for m[B]e
Cause [A]all that you are is a[E]ll that I'll ever n[B]eed
I'm so in [E]love[F#m] [A]
So in [E]love[F#m] [A]
So in [E]love[F#m] [A]
So in [E]love[F#m] [A]
[E] You look so b[F#m]eautiful i[A]n this light
[E] Your silhoue[F#m]tte over m[A]e
[E] The way it b[F#m]rings out the [A]blue in your eyes
is the [C#m]Tenerife[B] Sea [A]
And [E]all of the [F#m]voices surr[A]ounding us here
They just [E]fade out when [F#m]you take a b[A]reath
[E]Just say the w[F#m]ord and now we[A]'ll disappear
oh, [C#m]into the [B]wilderness[A]
And [A]should this be the [E]last thing I [B]see
I [A]want you to know it's e[E]nough for m[B]e
Cause [A]all that you are is a[E]ll that I'll ever n[B]eed
I'm so in [E]love[F#m] [A]
So in [E]love[F#m] [A]
So in [E]love[F#m] [A]
So in [E]love[F#m] [A]
[C#m]Lumi[A]ère [B]dar[E]ling
[C#m]Lumiè[A]re over m[B]e
(He loops this 6 times) (I sing it 2 times normal, 2 with the first harmony he uses)
And[A] should this be the[E] last thing I[B] see
I [A]want you to know it's e[E]nough for m[B]e
Cause [A]all that you are is a[E]ll that I'll ever n[B]eed
I'm so in [E]love[F#m] [A]
So in [E]love[F#m] [A]
So in [E]love[F#m] [A]
So in [E]love[F#m] [A]
[E] You look so [F#m]wonderful [A]in your dress
[E] I loved your [F#m]hair like [A]that
E F#m A*
And in the moment I knew you back
*(on the last chord just play the bass string)
