------------------
INTRO:
[ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch]
VERSE 1:
[[ch]D[/ch]] Feel I'm on the verge of some great [[ch]A[/ch]] truth
[[ch]D[/ch]] Where I'm finally in my [[ch]A[/ch]] place
[[ch]D[/ch]] But I'm fumbling still for [[ch]Am7[/ch]] proof
[[ch]C[/ch]] And it's cluttering my space [[ch]G[/ch]]
[[ch]C[/ch]] Casting shadows on my face [[ch]G[/ch]]
VERSE 2:
[[ch]D[/ch]] And though I have the strength to move a hill [[ch]A[/ch]]
[[ch]D[/ch]] I can hardly leave my room [[ch]A[/ch]]
[[ch]D[/ch]] So I'll sit perfectly [[ch]Am7[/ch]] still
[[ch]C[/ch]] And I'll listen for a tune [[ch]G[/ch]]
[[ch]C[/ch]] When my mind is on the moon [[ch]G[/ch]]
CHORUS:
And [[ch]D[/ch]] if I stumble, And [[ch]Am7[/ch]] if I stall,
And [[ch]C[/ch]] if I slip down, And [[ch]G[/ch]] if I should fall,
And [[ch]D[/ch]] if I can't be, [[ch]Am7[/ch]] All that I could be
Will [[ch]C[/ch]] you, Will you [[ch]G[/ch]] wait for me?
INSTRUMENTAL:
[ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch] [ch]D[/ch] [ch]A[/ch]
VERSE 3:
[[ch]D[/ch]] 'Cause everywhere I seem to [[ch]D[/ch]] be
[[ch]D[/ch]] I am only passing [[ch]D[/ch]] through
[[ch]D[/ch]] I dream these days about the [[ch]Am7[/ch]] sea
[[ch]C[/ch]] I always wake up feeling blue [[ch]G[/ch]]
[[ch]C[/ch]] Wishing I could dream of you [[ch]G[/ch]]
REPEAT CHORUS (with minor lyrics mods):
And [[ch]D[/ch]] if I stumble, And [[ch]Am7[/ch]] if I stall,
And [[ch]C[/ch]] if I slip down, And [[ch]G[/ch]] lose it all,
And [[ch]D[/ch]] if I can't be, [[ch]Am7[/ch]] All that I could be,
Will [[ch]C[/ch]] you, Will you [[ch]G[/ch]] wait for me?
FINALE:
And [[ch]D[/ch]] wait for me, and [[ch]Am7[/ch]] wait for me,
And [[ch]C[/ch]] wait for me, would you [[ch]G[/ch]] wait for me,
END WITH (repeat 5x)
And [[ch]D[/ch]] wait for me, please [[ch]Am7[/ch]] wait for me,
Please [[ch]C[/ch]] wait for me, would you [[ch]G[/ch]] wait for me,
INSTRUMENTAL:
[ch]D[/ch] [ch]Am7[/ch] [ch]C[/ch] [ch]G[/ch]
