Verse 1
Em                         D 
I used to sit and wish the hours away 
C                        Bm A 
And then I'd find it was morning 
Em                      D 
I used to sit and be so idle with time 
C                    Bm A 
But that was only my warning

Who was to say my heart was wrong 
G             A           Bm 
Needed just a little more time 
D          A        Bm     A 
Who was to say that we'd belong 
G          A 
You saw me looking at you 
Bm          Bm7 
And now I'm crying for you

Heart, hear-t 
G                 A          D 
Prayin' you'll be showin' me how

Verse 2
Em                     D 
I heard a story from a friend of a friend 
C                          Bm A 
That you were wishing it's o--ver 
Em                    D 
So many others on the silvery screen 
C                        Bm A 
But they were walking in clover
