[Verse 1]
 
Amadd9    G    F           Em
Whenever I'm alone with you
Amadd9        G            F         Em
You make me feel like I am home again
Amadd9    G    F           Em
Whenever I'm alone with you
Amadd9        G            F          Em
You make me feel like I am whole again
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
Am  Am7  G6  G  Fmaj7  Fadd9  Em  Em/B  ---> Half the time for each chord; despite looking difficult this part
                                             is all about adding the pinkie on the G note (high E string on
(x2)                                         the 3rd fret). So, as we can notice from the chord chart above,
                                             with this trick we'll have Am to switch into Am7, G6 into G,
                                             Fmaj7 into Fadd9 and so on.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
Amadd9    G    F           Em  Em/B
Whenever I'm alone with you
Amadd9        G            F          Em  Em/B
You make me feel like I am young again
Amadd9     G   F           Em  Em/B
Whenever I'm alone with you
Amadd9        G            F        Em  Em/B
You make me feel like I am fun again
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F        G
However far away
Am7       C
I will always love you
F        G
However long I stay
Am7       C
I will always love you
F         G
Whatever words I say
Am       C
I will always love you
Am7       C
I will always love you

Whenever I'm alone with you
Amadd9        G            F         Em  Em/B
You make me feel like I am free again
 Amadd9       G     F      Em  Em/B
Whenever I'm alone with you
Amadd9        G            F          Em  Em/B
You make me feel like I am clean again

Absolutely beautiful, thank you. I like to play the last C in the open position and turn it into a Cmaj7 right as the vocals end.
