C You keep saying you love him 
I be-{G} lieve that it's C true 
And it just doesn't matter 
How G much I love C you 
But in time you'll under-{C7} stand, dear 
When F you shed a [C] tear 
Then you'll know you were living 
In G your TENDER C YEARS. 
 
In your eyes there's a lovelight 
That shines for him 
But how long will it stay there 
Will that lovelight grow dim 
You can just see the happiness 
You can't see the tears 
Its true 'cause you're living 
In your TENDER YEARS. 
 
So if I can't be your first love 
I'll wait and be your last 
I'll be somewhere in your future 
To help you forget the past 
And you'll know that I love you 
With a love that's sincere 
'Cause I'll wait till you're thru living 
In your TENDER YEARS. 
 
TAG:

With a F love that's sin-{C} cere 
Yes, I'll wait till you're thru living 
In G your TENDER C YEARS.
