(Cappo on 8th Fret)
E5
You've been gone much longer than you
E5
Ever said you had the plan to
E5
I'm just gonna wait 'til you come home

E5
Though I count the days, they're grey without you
E5
The weather's much better when I think about you
A5
I'm just gonna wait 'til you come home

E5
Empty glasses, burnt out matches
E5
Curtains drawn on near-full blackness
E5
I'm sleeping through the day you're coming home
A5
To reclaim this hardship home

E5
Never leave me
E5
Make me burn
             A5
You're coming back
             E5
You're coming back
E5
I'll wait patiently
E5
For your return
             A5
You're coming back
             E5
You're coming back

                 E5
I'm clutching at straws
                   E5
I'm climbing up the walls
                 A5
But every time I fall
             E5
Back into my hole
                   E5
I'm feeling like a wretch
                  E5
I'm looking for a catch
                           A5
But you're an itch I can't stratch
                     E5
I know you're coming back

E5
You've been gone so long you're fading
E5
And it takes all the time I can find just retaining
E5
Thoughts of what we did while you were here
      A5
But I know you will return, my dear
