Version 2[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 Then she quietly 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 . . .

[Ending] G C/E Cm/G G While she waits, while she waits for me
