Should put a Capo on 4th if you're playing along with the studio version.
The studio version is without Cadd9 in the verse, but I think it sounds good on acoustic with it.
 
[Intro]
G  D/F#  Em  Cadd9
G  D/F#  Em  Cadd9
 
[Verse 1]
           G     D/F#   Em        Cadd9
I've been here before a few times
         G     D/F#        Em    Cadd9
And I'm quite aware we're dying
          G          D/F#       Em       Cadd9
And your hands they shake with goodbyes
          G         D/F#         Em      Cadd9
And I'll take you back if you'd have me
     G     Am     Em     Cadd9
So here I am I'm trying
     G     Am        Em     Cadd9
So here I am are you ready
 
[Chorus]
                G         D/F#      Em
Come on let me hold you, touch you, feel you
Cadd9
Always
G          D/F#     Em
Kiss you, taste you all night
Cadd9
Always
 
G  D/F#  Em  Cadd9
G  D/F#  Em  Cadd9
 
[Verse 2]
           G         D/F#      Em   Cadd9
And I'll miss your laugh your smile
         G     D/F#            Em     Cadd9
I'll admit I'm wrong if you'd tell me
          G      D/F#     Em       Cadd9
I'm so sick of fights, I hate them
            G      D/F#     Em   Cadd9
Let's start this again for real
     G     Am     Em     Cadd9
So here I am, I'm trying
     G     Am         Em     Cadd9
So here I am, are you ready?
     G     Am      Em    Cadd9
So here I am, I'm trying
     G     Am         Em     Cadd9
So here I am, are you ready?
 
[Chorus]
                G         D/F#      Em
Come on let me hold you, touch you, feel you
Cadd9
Always
G          D/F#     Em
Kiss you, taste you all night
Cadd9
Always
 
                G         D/F#      Em
Come on let me hold you, touch you, feel you
Cadd9

G          D/F#     Em
Kiss you, taste you all night

Eu can also play just a D instead of a D/F#. Also, between the change between Cadd9 and G you can hit the E string a little pressing on the second fret

This is great other than the fact that you don't have all the lyrics! With all the above chords it should be: I've been here before a few times And I'm quite aware we're dying And your hands they shake with goodbyes And I'll take you back if you'd have me So here I am, I'm trying So here I am, are you ready? (Chorus:) Come on let me hold you, touch you, feel you, Always Kiss you, taste you, all night, Always (musical interlude) And I'll miss your laugh your smile I'll admit I'm wrong if you'd tell me I'm so sick of fights, I hate them Lets start this again for real So here I am, I'm trying So here I am, are you ready? So here I am, I'm trying So here I am, are you ready? (CHORUS) (musical interlude) I've been here before a few times And I'm quite aware we're dying (CHORUS x2) (musical interlude) Always... Always...
