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

Looks awesome - sounds great. However I think you missed a chord. The bridge I think should be F#m -> C#m -> E -> B and the A and Abm also sound a little off. I just play it with the above sequence thru to the end - and end with the C#m, then back into the chorus. All in all a 9/10 tho. Well done.
