INTRO  - Play this progression - listen to the song to determine chord changes - it's 
identical to the chorus, except that the final "F" is held until the verse begins

[A#6add11  Dm7/A  Cm7/G  Dm7  A#6add11  Dm7/A  Cm7/G  F]


VERSE 1

Bb              A#6add11
Midnight hour's almost over
Bb             Dm7/A
Time is running out for the magic pair
Bb              A#6add11
I know you gave the best that you have
Bb                         Dm7/A
but one more chance couldn't be all that hard to bear


CHORUS 1

A#6add11              Dm7/A
So wait for me, please
               Cm7/G
Wait for me, oh I
                         Dm7
I guess that's more than I should ask,
              A#6add11           Dm7/A
but won't you wait for me, please
               Cm7/G
wait for me, oh I
                    F
I know the light is fading fast


VERSE 2

Bb                   A#6add111
You could go either way; is it easier to stay
Bb                      Dm7/A
I wonder what you'll do when your chance rolls around
Bb                      A#6add11
But you gotta know much I - I want to keep you
Bb                      Dm7/A
When I'm away, I'm afraid it will all fall down


CHORUS 2

A#6add11              Dm7/A
So wait for me, please
               Cm7/G
Wait for me, oh I
                         Dm7
I guess that's more than I should ask,
              A#6add11           Dm7/A
but won't you wait for me, please
               Cm7/G
wait for me, oh I
                    F
I know the light is fading fast


BRIDGE 1

Bb                               Cm
la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Cm       Dm          A#6add11    F(v.2)
la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Bb                               Cm
la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Cm       Dm          A#6add11    F(v.2)
la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Bb                                     Cm
Love is what it does and ours is doing nothing
Cm       Dm          A#6add11    F(v.2)
But all the time we spent, it must be good for something
Bb                                     Cm
Please forgive all the disturbance I'm creating
Cm            Dm                  A#6add11        F(v.2)
But you gotta lot to learn if you think that I'm not waiting for you.

I guess that's more than I should ask,
              A#6add11           Dm7/A
but won't you wait for me, please
               Cm7/G
wait for me, oh I

I know the light is fading fast

Cm            Dm                  A#6add11        F(v.2)
But you gotta lot to learn if you think that I'm not waiting for you.
