capo on 4th fret

INTRO:  A5  A5  D5       (repeat)

VERSE:
A5  A5  D5  A5
If you wait for me
Then I'll come for you
  C#5         D5       E5
Although I've travelled far
  C#m    D7M  D         E7        A -- repeat intro chords twice
I always hold a place for you in my heart

(repeat verse chords)
If you think of me
If you miss me once in a while
Then I'll return to you
I'll return and fill that space in your heart

CHORUS:
A5  E5      F#5    D5       E5          A5    E5 F#5
Remembering your touch, your kiss, your warm embrace,
     D5   E5   A5    E5  F#5
I'll find my way back to you
   D7M    E E7 A  -- repeat intro as before
If you'd be waiting

VERSE:
If you dream of me
Like I dream of you
In a place that's warm and dark
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart

Oh I've longed for you
And I have desired
To see your face, your smile
To be with you wherever you are

REPEAT CHORUS

VERSE:
I've longed for you
And I have desired
To see your face your smile
To be with you wherever you are

LAST CHORUS:
Remembering your touch, your kiss, your warm embrace,
I'll find my way back to you
Please say you'll be waiting

FINALE:
F#5       D5 E5         A5       E5       F#5
Together again,  it would feel so good to be
       D5 E5      A5      E5        F#5
In your arms  Where all my journeys end
                   D5  E5        A5        E5       F#5
If you can make a promise  If it's one that you can keep
  D5          E5        A5   E5       A5  A5  D5  A5  E5
I vow to come for you  If you wait for me
    C#5  E5     D5
And say you'll hold
  D5         E5          A5
A place for me in your heart

(sing last line three times over intro chords and quit)
