I Can Wait Forever

 
              Introduction: D - G - (A/C# D) - G7/B - C 
 
C                    D9 
When you say, I miss the things you do, 
Dm7/b5                    C 
I just wanna get back close again to you. 
C/G                  D/F# 
But for now, your voice is near enough, 
Bb/F                               F 
How I miss you, when I miss you, love. 
       Cm/Eb 
And though, 
          Dsus4                   D          Bbm/Db 
All the days that pass me by so slow 
          Csus4         C           F           Gm 
All the emptiness inside me flows, all around, 
                Am7     Dm7 
And there's no way out 
           Bb7M/F 
I'm just thinkin' so much of you, 
               Asus4      G    A 
There was never any doubt... 
D                G    A/C#                Dsus4  D 
I can wait forever, if you say you'll be there, too 
Am/C  B7sus4 B7 Em               D/A 
I can wait      forever, if you will, I know it's worth it all 
    Gm/A             A7sus4  A7 
To spend my life alone with you.  
D - G - (A/C# D) - G7/B 
 
C                       D/C 
When it looked, as though my life was wrong, 
D#m7/b5/C                          C 
You took my love and gave it somewhere to belong 
C7/G                D7/F# 
I'll be here, when hope is out of sight, 
Bb/F                      F                               Cm/Eb 
I just wish that I was next to you tonight, and oh 
        Dsus4              D             Bbm/Db 
I'll be reachin' for you even though, 
            Csus4                       C         F 
You'll be somewhere else, my love will go 
        Gm           Am7        Dm 
like a bird, on it's way back home 
          Bb7M/F                    Asus4               G    A 
I could never let you go, and I just want you to know... 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Bb               Fsus4   F 
Where are you now? 
   Bb               Am7           Dm 
Alone, with the thoughts we share 
Cm7                   Bb 
Keep them strong somehow, 
Bb   C   Dm                        Csus4  C  Bb  C 
And you know, I'll always be there... 
 
F               Bb    C/E                 F               Bb/D 
I can wait forever, if you say you'll be there, too 
Cm/Eb D7sus4 D7  Gm                  F/C 
I can    wait,     forever if you will, I know it's worth it all 
    Bb                 Bb  C 
To spend my life alone... 
F                Bb   C/E                 F 
I can wait forever, if you say you'll be there, too, 
Cm/Eb D7sus4 D7  Gm                Gm5-/Db Gm5-/Bb  F/C  C  Bb  C 
I can    wait,     forever if you will, I can      wait     forever or 
more...
