C
Patiently
             Gm7
I've waited patiently
             Am           F
Hoping that you'd believe
          C                G
That the lights in our eyes
                C
Are not fading out


                   Gm7
They're not yet fading out
               Am            F
Somehow we're safe and sound
           C              G
Like the glow off the shore
           C
We will hurry


C            F7
What could I ever do?
C              G7
What could I say?
C                    F7
To cover up my concerns?
C                 G7
To keep them at bay?

C               F7  
Oh, then she said, 
C                   G7 
"You spend too much time in your head."
C             F7
What could I ever do?
C             G7            C
What could I say so carefully?

C
Carefully
             Gm7
I followed carefully
              Am              F
Too scared of a scraped knee
       C            G                  C 
So I wait on the sand with her Coppertone

                    Gm7              
Yeah, she put on Coppertone
                   Am         F         
And went out there all alone
       C           G            C  
Never one to be scared or to worry

C             F7
What could I ever do?
C              G7
What could I say?
C                    F7
To cover up my concerns?
C                 G7
To keep them at bay?

C            F7
Oh, then she said, 
C                    G7
"You spend too much time in your head."
C             F7
What could I ever do?
C            G7         C
What could I say so carefully?
