Intro: Em  D  G  x 4


Verse 1: 
             Em   D       G
  Only one shadow on the wall,
            Em     D        G
  Just one candle burning bright.
               Em      D     G
  I hold your picture to my heart,
        Em     D        G
  I?m alone inside the night.
Em              Bm
  The Sun comes up in China,
       C
  The lights go on in Rome... oh.


Chorus:
 D                 Em          C                G
Half the world is waiting for someone they can hold,
 D                 Em              C         D
Half the world is praying they'll never be alone.
    Em    D        G          Em              C
Oh, everytime you leave me a part of me goes too,
     D                  Em               C
And half your world is waiting here for you.


       Em  D  G  x 2


Verse 2:
             Em      D     G
  I reach across an empty bed,
                Em    D      G
  I hear your whisper in my ear,
                Em      D       G
  But like the Sun without the Moon,
                Em      D        G
  It's half a dream without you here.
Em                Bm
  The train that takes you from me
    C
  Brings somebody home... oh.


Chorus:
 D                 Em          C                G
Half the world is waiting for someone they can hold,
 D                 Em              C         D
Half the world is praying they'll never be alone.
    Em    D        G          Em              C
Oh, everytime you leave me a part of me goes too,
     D                  Em               C   G
And half your world is waiting here for you.


Bridge:
D#          A#
  Baby, the Earth stands still
Cm                Dm
  When I'm lying next to you.
D#            A#
  No matter where you go,
             G#
  Our whole world's inside this room.


       Em  Bm  C


Em              Bm
  The Sun comes up in China,
       C
  The lights go on in Rome... oh.


Chorus:
 D                 Em          C                G
Half the world is waiting for someone they can hold,
 D                 Em              C         D
Half the world is praying they'll never be alone.
    Em    D        G        Em                   C
And everytime you leave me, my heart breaks in two.

And half your world is waiting here for you.
