Correction here they are:
Intro: F#-B- G#m(x4)
Verse: 
 F#-  B- F#-  G#One time, then
 B-  F#-  G#-  B- G#m  
Chorus:
 G#m-  B-  F#-  B-  F#  
then play this while the electric guitar is playing
 B- F#  
Then repeat verse
but it would be like this:
 F#-  B-  F#m-  F#-  B- G#m  
Repeat chorus but, Miljenko changes the tone so it would go like this
 G#m-  B-  F#m-  B-  F#m- F#  
Bridge:
 D#m-  G#m-  C#m- E- B-  D#m-  G#m-  E- B  
Then play:
 F#-  B'til the song ends…
so, with the lyrichs, it'd go like this:
Play intro
Verse:
I don't mean to hurt you 
I don't mean to offend you 
I don't mean to condemn you
Chorus:
Forgive me - but I love you
Verse II
I don't mean to wound you 
And I don't mean to punish you 
I know, Know I made you suffer through 
Chorus:
Forgive me - but I thinks it's 'cause I love you 
Bridge:
Yeh, I know I'm fast to criticize 
Sometimes my mouth runs wild 
I don't know why 
But I know one thing is true 
Forever, forever, I will love you
When it goes on you… play  F#-  B'til the ends
Once again, pretty easy, but still so lovely
