This song was introduced by a close friend who works in Yamaha of Jusco Cheras Selatan after I played Avril Lavigne's What The Hell on their beautiful showroom's grand piano. The song is rather straightforward and easy to learn, but you might want to add a little spice on the accompaniment so that it sounds more like the original song played on a guitar.
Click HERE for the video. You'll definitely need it while reading a printed tutorial. Special thanks to a young man who personally emailed me telling me he got laid after playing from my tutorial on Eminem's song. Bravo!
Introduction LH dances on chord E RH on notes E and B Twice
The song just starts!
I can be tough I can be strong But with you, It's not like that at all (Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear)
Theres a girl who gives a shit Behind this wall You just walk through it (Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear)
[refrain] And I remember all those crazy thing you said You left them running through my head You're always there, you're everywhere But right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did Didn't think about it just went with it You're always there, you're everywhere But right now I wish you were here (A little more sophisticated now. Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar slightly more chords and your own style. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear) Pause
[chorus] Damn, Damn, Damn, What I'd do to have you Here, Here, Here I wish you were here
Damn, Damn, Damn, What I'd do to have you Near, Near, Near I wish you were here. (Chorus! Intense, same simple Canon in D chords on E, B, C#, A, you may add some of your own style in between. Right hand plays the chorus like you're shouting DAYUUUUUMMMM!)
I love the way you are It's who I am don't have to try hard We always say, Say like it is And the truth is that I really miss (Intense! One Octave Higher! Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear)
[refrain] All those crazy thing you said You left them running through my head You're always there, you're everywhere But right now I wish you were here
All those crazy things we did Didn't think about it just went with it You're always there, you're everywhere But right now I wish you were here (A little more sophisticated now. Canon in D chords, starting with E, B, C#, A, play it like you're playing the guitar slightly more chords and your own style. Right hand plays the Melody with your ear) Pause
[chorus] Damn, Damn, Damn, What I'd do to have you Here, Here, Here I wish you were here
Damn, Damn, Damn, What I'd do to have you Near, Near, Near I wish you were here. (Chorus! Intense, same simple Canon in D chords on E, B, C#, A, you may add some of your own style in between. Right hand plays the chorus like you're shouting DAYUUUUUMMMM!)
[bridge] No, I don't wanna let go I just wanna let you know That I never wanna let go Let go, Oh, Oh,
No, I don't wanna let go I just wanna let you know That I never wanna let go Let go, Let go, Let go... (Chords of Bridge are F# F# C#, E E B, several times, then A, F#, B, C# then B back to E)
[chorus] Damn, Damn, Damn, What I'd do to have you Here, Here, Here I wish you were here
Damn, Damn, Damn, What I'd do to have you Near, Near, NearI wish you were here. (Chorus! Intense, same simple Canon in D chords on E, B, C#, A, you may add some of your own style in between. Right hand plays the chorus like you're shouting DAYUUUUUMMMM!)

Hi im a very very VERY BIG BIG fan of your youtube covers. Although im only 11, I started to play piano when I was 5 years old. One of my favorites songs are Im yours by Jason Mraz. I didn't see the sheet music on your website, so I was wondering if you could email or post the cover for Im yours. Thx
Your #1 Fan
