[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
 C                      G
()                      
I can be tough, I can be strong
         Am                         F
But with you, it's not like that at all
          C                 G
There's a girl that gives a shit
            Am                         F
Behind this wall you just walk through it
[Pre-chorus]
               C
And I remember all those crazy things you said
    G
You left them running through my head
       Am
You're always there, you're everywhere
    F
But right now I wish you were here
C
All those crazy things we did
G
Didn't think about it, just went with it
       Am
You're always there, you're everywhere
    F
But right now I wish you were here
[Chorus]
C               G
Damn! Damn! Damn!
                        Am              F
What I'd do to have you here, here, here. I wish you were here
C               G
Damn! Damn! Damn!
                        Am              F
What I'd do to have you near, near, near. I wish you were here
[Verse 2]
  C                 G
I love, the way you are
           Am                  F
It's who I am, don't have to try hard
         C                    G
We always say, say it like it is
        Am                      F
And the truth, is that I really miss
[Pre-chorus]
C
All those crazy things you said
    G
You left them running through my head
       Am
You're always there, you're everywhere
    F
But right now I wish you were here
C
All those crazy things we did
G
Didn't think about it, just went with it
       Am
You're always there, you're everywhere
    F
But right now I wish you were here
[Chorus]
C               G
Damn! Damn! Damn!
                        Am              F
What I'd do to have you here, here, here. I wish you were here
C               G
Damn! Damn! Damn!
                        Am              F
What I'd do to have you near, near, near. I wish you were here
[Bridge]
Dm    Am                    C
   No, I don't wanna let go
  G                       Dm
I just wanna let you know
       Am                  C
That I, never wanna let go
    G
Let go, oh oh
Dm    Am                    C
   No, I don't wanna let go
  G
I just wanna let you know
F
  That I, never wanna let go
Em          G                   Am
Let go, let go, let go, let go, let go ...

What I'd do to have you here, here, here. I wish you were here

Damn! Damn! Damn!
                        Am              F                     C
