Intro
[G] [C/G] [Cm/G] [G]
Verse
[G]
While she lays sleeping
[G7/B] [C]
I stay out late at night and sing my songs
[G/B] [Am7] [D7] [D/C] [Bm7]
And sometimes all the nights can be so long
[Em7] [Am7]
And it's good when I finally make it home -
[D7sus4]
All alone
[D7] [G]
While she lays dreaming
[G7/B] [C]
I try to get undressed without the light
[G/B] [Am7] [D7] [D/C] [Bm7]
And quietly she says how was your night
[Em7] [Am7]
And I come to her and say it was all right -
[D7] [G] [D7sus4]
And I hold her tight
Chorus
[Gsus4] [G]
And she believes in me
[Gsus4] [G] [F#m7b5]
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]
I could change the world with my little songs -
[Dsus4]
I was wrong
[Gsus4] [G]
But she has faith in me
[Gsus4] [G] [F#m7b5]
And so I go on trying faithfully
[B7] [Em]
And who knows, maybe on some special night
[Em/D#] [Em/D] [Em/C#]
If my song is right
[Am7]
I will find a way
[D7sus4]
Find a way . . .
Verse
[G]
While she lays waiting
[G7/B] [C]
I stumble to the kitchen for a bite
[G/B] [Am7] [D7] [D/C] [Bm7]
Then I see my old guitar in the night
[Em7] [Am7]
Just waiting for me like a secret friend -
[D7sus4]
And there's no end
[D7] [G]
While she lies crying
[G7/B] [C]
I fumble with a melody or two
[G/B] [Am7] [D7] [D/C] [Bm7]
Then I'm torn between the things that I should do
[Em7] [Am7] [D7] [G]
Then she says to wake her up when I am through
[D7sus4]
God her love is true
Chorus
[Gsus4] [G]
And she believes in me
[Gsus4] [G] [F#m7b5]
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]
I could change the world with my little songs -
[Dsus4]
I was wrong
[Gsus4] [G]
But she has faith in me
[Gsus4] [G] [F#m7b5]
And so I go on trying faithfully
[B7] [Em]
And who knows, maybe on some special night
[Em/D#] [Em/D] [Em/C#]
If my song is right
[Am7]
I will find a way
[D7sus4]
Find a way . . .
Ending
[G] [C/G] [Cm/G] [G]
While she waits, while she waits for me
