Intro

[Verso 1]
               G          G                G7/B              C    Bm7 
While she lays sleeping i stay out late at night and play my   songs, 
    Am7               D7    C     Bm7 
And sometimes all the nights can be so long 
         Em7                         C           C/D 
And it's good when i finally make it home    all   alone. 

 

[Verso 2]
               G          G            G7/B                C   Bm7 
While she lays dreaming i try to get undressed without the   light 
    Am7         D7  C    Bm7 
And quietly she says   how was your night? 
      Em7                        C 
And i come to her and say it was allright 
      G               Am7/D 
And i hold her tight.

          Gsus4     G   Gsus4        G                  Am/F# 
And she believes in me,   i'll never know just what she sees in me, 
B7                          Em         Em/D# 
  i told her someday if she was my girl 
        Em/D       Em/C#         Am7             Am7/D 
I could change the world with my little songs, i was wrong. 
            Gsus4    G  Gsus4      G            Am/F# 
But she has faith in me   and so i go on trying faithfully 
B7                             Em           Em/D# 
  and who knows, maybe on some special night, 
      Em/D    Em/C#        Am7            C/D 
If my song is right i will find a way. 



[Verso 3]
               G         G              G7/B          C Bm7 
While she lays waiting i stumble to the kitchen for a bite, 
       Am7           D7 C     Bm7 
Then i see my old guitar in the night, 
     Em7                          C          C/D 
Just waiting for me like a secret friend and there's no end. 



[Verso 4]
               G        G             G7/B      C   Bm7 
While she lies crying i fumble with a melody or   two, 
         Am7              D7         C Bm7 
Then i'm torn between the things that i  should do, 
         Em7                      C           C/D 
Then she says to wake her up when i am through, 
  G                     C/D 
I know her love is true.

While she waits,   while she waits for me.
