Verse 1:      D                      G 
              She'd been waiting for hours 
              D                   G 
              I made her wait for days 
              C           *         D 
              She said she'd wait a lifetime 
                        C            D         G 
              And with that said I went my own way

Verse 2:      D                     G 
              I chose a path to be awakened 
                  D                   G 
              Hoping a better man was within

              I found someone out there 
                  C               D       G 
              Someone bigger than who I had been

Verse 3:      D                  G

                          D                    G 
              But I'd been gone too long I was sure 
              C          *             D 
              Something deep down inside me 
                       C             D            G 
              Knew our love would be stronger than words

                Em                     C 
              I wasted no time on my own 
              G                  D 
              Let your fears subside babe 
                          C       D             G 
              'Cause I'm a better man for you to love

Verse 4:      D                 G 
              Now I will do the waiting 
                  D                   G 
              All night long I don't sleep 
              C      *        D 
              I lay awake for hours 
                          C   D        G 
              Waiting for her so I can breathe
