IntroGCCmGVerseG
While she lays sleeping
G7C
I stay out late at night and sing my songs
GAmD7DBm
And sometimes all the nights can be so long
EmAm
And it's good when I finally make it home -
D7
All alone
D7G
While she lays dreaming
G7C
I try to get undressed without the light
GAmD7DBm
Then she quietly says how was your night
EmAm
And I come to her and say it was all right -
D7GD7
And I hold her tight
ChorusGG
And she believes in me
GG F#m7(b5)
I'll never know just what she sees in me
B7Em Em+7 ( Em )
I told her someday if she was my girl
EmEmEmEmAm
I could change the world with my little songs -
D
I was wrong
GG
But she has faith in me
GG F#m7(b5)
And so I go on trying faithfully
B7Em
And who knows, maybe on some special night
Em+7 EmEm
If my song is right
Am
I will find a way
D7
Find a way . . .
VerseG
While she lays waiting
G7C
I stumble to the kitchen for a bite
GAmD7DBm
Then I see my old guitar in the night
EmAm
Just waiting for me like a secret friend -
D7
And there's no end
D7G
While she lies crying
G7C
I fumble with a melody or two
GAmD7DBm
Then I'm torn between the things that I should do
EmAmD7G
Then she says to wake her up when I am through
D7
God her love is true
ChorusGG
And she believes in me
GG F#m7(b5)
I'll never know just what she sees in me
B7Em Em+7 ( Em )
I told her someday if she was my girl
EmEmEmEmAm
I could change the world with my little songs -
D
I was wrong
GG
But she has faith in me
GG F#m7(b5)
And so I go on trying faithfully
B7Em
And who knows, maybe on some special night
Em+7 EmEm
If my song is right
Am
I will find a way
D7
Find a way . . .
