Dadd4: 20022x
G: 32003x
Em7: 02000x
A: x0222x
For a cool effect you can add the high e string from verse 2 onwards
These chords fit what the piano plays and also works on guitar
On Instagram however Davie posted a video where he played these three chords:
050030, 040030 and x2001x (the root note is a hammer-on in the last chord).
All with the capo on the 5th. It's in Open D Tuning
Maybe someone else can work out that version
You can remove the high e string from your guitar to make it easier

[Verse 1]
Dadd4
Morning breaks
It's a sobering take
G Em7
But I'm here, you are not again
Dadd4
This time of year, I usually lean on
G Em7
My closest friends, secretly hoping
Dadd4 G Em7
That you'll be coming back here
[Chorus]
Em7 A Dadd4
I don't mind, I don't care
G
I don't need your love
Em7
No, maybe I never did
Dadd4
I am strong
And I belong
G
To this world and if I cannot belong
Em7 Dadd4
To anyone then I'll confine
G
In the quiet winter, light a gathering
Em7 G
And I hope you find some peace of mind
Dadd4
This Christmas, hopefully
[Interlude]
Dadd4 Dadd4 G
[Verse 2]
Dadd4
It was Christmas night, back in '99
G Em7
You went out, no one knew where you went
Dadd4
And I've spent my whole damn life
G Dadd4 Em7
Trying to find you
[Chorus]
Em7 A Dadd4
I don't mind, I don't care
G
I don't need your love
Em7
No, maybe I never did
Dadd4
I am strong
I belong
G
To this world and if I cannot belong
Em7 Dadd4
To anyone then I'll confine
G
In the quiet winter, light a gathering
Em7 G
And I hope you find some peace of mind
Dadd4
This Christmas, hopefully
[Interlude]
Dadd4 Dadd4 G G
G Dadd4 Dadd4
[Chorus]
Em7 A Dadd4
I do mind, I do care
G
I still need your love
Em7
And the truth is that I always will
A Dadd4
I'm not strong, I belong
G
To this world, and if I cannot belong
Em7 A
To anyone then I'll confine
G
In the quiet winter, light a gathering
Em7 G
Hoping you'll find some peace of mind
Dadd4
This Christmas, hopefully
