Let Me Hold You Chords

This is Let Me Hold You by Josh Krajcik, on his album Blindly, Lonely, Lovely. If you don't already know, 
Josh Krajcik was the runner-up in the 2011 X-Factor USA.

Just a couple technicalities: 
1) I marked out the measures for the intro and placed the chords in their relative positions, but if that
doesn't make any sense, just ignore the vertical lines and play the chords written when you hear them in the
song.
2) The Em in the chorus can be interchanged with a G/B or Em7, depending on
how fancy you want to sound, but I think I have it mapped out the way Krajcik plays it in the recording. But
any of those three chords will sound good
3) It sounds like Krajcik is playing something between the G/B
and the C in the pre-chorus, but I think it is just another hit on the G chord, not a different chord, so I 
didn't mark a chord there. (You can hear what sounds like 5 chord changes in that line, but the 3rd and 4th 
are both G chords.)

If you have any questions or think you found any mistakes, please comment/correct below. Enjoy!


INTRO:
|C   G   |G   Am Em |C   G   |D       |

VERSE:
                      C         G
When the dark clouds come your way
           Am Em  C         G
When your demons can't be tamed
           Am    Em     C        G
When your last straw's bout to break
         Am   G/B   C          G       D
And you feel your heart can't take anymore

                    C        G 
When your second chance is gone
             Am Em   C       G
When you're barely hanging on
             Am   G/B  C      G
When you're tired of being strong
         Am     G/B  C       G      D
And you don't know where to run anymore


PRE-CHORUS:
         Em  D/F#  G/B      C
I wanna take a  -  way the hurt
       Em   D/F#  G/B      C
But I just don't have the words


CHORUS:
         Am7        C
Let me hold you
         G     D/F# (F# optional)
Let me hold you tight
         Am7         C
Let me hold you
              G          D
Just let me hold you tonight

(INTRO - EXCEPT D)

VERSE:
          Am  Em  C        G
When the shadow's always there
          Am    G/B  C      G
When you can't come up for air
        Am     G/B       C         G
When tomorrow seems to lead nowhere
                Am   G/B  C         G        D
And there's no an - swer to your prayer anymore


PRE-CHORUS:
         Em  D/F#  G/B      C
I wanna take a  -  way the hurt
       Em   D/F#  G/B      C
But I just don't have the words


CHORUS:
         Am7        C
Let me hold you
         G     D/F# (F# optional)
Let me hold you tight
         Am7         C
Let me hold you
              G          D
Just let me hold you tonight


(Oooh's... play one more full CHORUS)

         Am7        C
Let me hold you
         G        D
Let me hold you tight
         Am7         C
Let me hold you
                 G         D
*It's all that I can do tonight
