A few parts of the lyrics are questionable, I couldn't find official ones. The chords are right though.
That Em to Em/Eb in the chorus is done thusly:
7 to 7

Verse 1:
GGive me a minute to comBmpose myself, it’s been
EmLong, long time since Cyou been gone
GI can still remember conversEmations we had
too Dbad that’s all thaCt now lingers on
GSo many times I nearly Bmfooled myself that some…
EmBody like you could give a Cdamn about me
GBut then one day you stepped inEmto my life,
All my strDife was a fleetiGng memory
Chorus:
COver and over in my Emhead at Dnight (What went Cwrong…)
C Em Em/Eb C
Didn’t lose the battle, didn’t give up the fight (What went wrong…)
CTo let you go then didn’Emt make thingDs right (What wenCt wrong…)
C (speed up strumming) Cm
Can’t hide the tears from my eyes now that love’s gone and passed me by…
Verse 2:
GDuring my life I somehow Bmsteered you wrong
EmFrom the road once again was driving Cus way
GI pushed aside the things that Emmeant so much
With Dhope that you’d bCe happy some day
GI wear regret now like the Bmlines on my face
EmNot a day passes on that you don’Ct cross my mind (You don’t cross my mind…)
GCouldn’t raise the spirits of Ema broken heart
And chancDe the ? G

Verse 3:
GBut then one day I gatherBmed up the nerve
EmTo trip all of those waves I vowed noCt to cross
GIn for this pain that flow deepEm down inside
That Dstill housed the drCeams that all is not lost
GUpon the threshold I now maBmde my ascent
Emtowards the door I should close on Cone careless days
GWithout a look, just pass them bEmuzzer and in
That yourD name, long gone, it faded awayG
