          B5      
I've been waiting for a long long time 
          F#5
I've been waiting for a long long time 
          B5
I've been waiting for a long long time 
          F#5                 B5
I've been waiting for the long time now 


I've been waiting for a long long time 
I've been waiting for a long long time 
I've been waiting for a long long time 
I've been waiting for the long time now 

B5
I can hear the footsteps 
(interlude)

A5          D5          A5             D5
Following behind me trying to find me 
B5
But when I turn around 
A5                D5              A5        D5
I can't see where the path goes into the shadows 
G5           A5   B5
Into the shadows 


I've been waiting for a long long time 
I've been waiting for a long long time 
I've been waiting for a long long time 
I've been waiting for the long time now 

B5
I can hear you breathing 
(interlude)

A5            D5      A5            D5
Whispering in my ear there is nothing to fear 
B5
But when I turn around 
A5            D5
As I see the trees bow 
A5            D5      G5
I only hear the wind blow 

       A5          G5
By mistake I felt alone 
       A5                  G5
In my heart I've always known 
          A5                  B5
You'd be there to bring me home 

F#5    B5
(solo)


I've been waiting for a long long time 
I've been waiting for a long long time 
I've been waiting for a long long time 
I've been waiting for the long time now 
I've been waiting for the long time now 
I've been waiting for the long time now
