Intro: E-- x2


Verse 1:
     E MajorE
I can be tough
     BB
I can be strong
     C# minorC#m
But with you, it’s not
       A augmentedA
like that at all
     E MajorE
There’s a girl
       BB
That gives a shit
      C# minorC#m
Behind this wall
       A augmentedA
You just walk through it


Refrain:
        E MajorE
And I remember all those
crazy things you said
  BB
You left them
running through my head
    C# minorC#m
You’re always there
You’re everywhere
  A augmentedA
But right now I
wish you were here
E MajorE
All those crazy things we did
BB
Didn’t think about
it just went with it
    C# minorC#m
You’re always there
You’re everywhere
  A augmentedA
But right now I
wish you were here

Chorus:
BB
Damn Damn Damn
What I’d do to have you
A augmentedA
here here here
(I wish you were here)
BB
Damn Damn Damn
What I’d do to have you
A augmentedA
near near near
(I wish you were here)


Verse 2:
 BB
I love the way you are
      C# minorC#m
It’s who I am
         A augmentedA
Don’t have to try hard
   E MajorE
We always say
        BB
Say it like it is
    C# minorC#m
And the truth
         A augmentedA
Is that I really miss


Refrain 2:
E MajorE
all those
crazy things you said
  BB
You left them
running through my head
    C# minorC#m
You’re always there
You’re everywhere
  A augmentedA
But right now I
wish you were here
E MajorE
All those crazy things we did
BB
Didn’t think about
it just went with it
    C# minorC#m
You’re always there
You’re everywhere
  A augmentedA
But right now I
wish you were here


(Repeat Chorus)

wanna let go Let go oh oh
C# minorC#m
  No  I don’t want to let go
