[Verse 1]
Emaj7Bm
When I first saw your face,
EA
Knew that I could not hesitate.
EA
You said, "Baby don't go too fast,
Emaj7E
If we do then it may not last."
Emaj7Bm
Time went on and I waited for you,
EA
I didn't know what else I could do.
EAC#mF#m7
I thought that we'd always be together,
ACmaj7D
You said, "Hold on, it just get's better."
E
And I believed you,
Esus4ECmaj7
I kept holding on.
DA
You think that I can never leave you.
B7sus4
You think I'm not that strong,
E
You're wrong.
[Chorus]
BD
Love won't wait,
AC
Forever and a day.
E
Love must live in the here and now,
F#m7EAB7sus4
Don't ask me how I know.
[Verse 2]
EEmaj7Bm
So here I am with my heart on my sleeve.
EA
You said, "Baby put your trust in me."
EF#m7
But I have come to the end of the line.
And you've wasted up
BE
All of my precious time.
Emaj7Bm
Wanted to be something special to you.
EA
Ev'rybody's somebody's fool.
Won't be a fool,
EF#m7
No, you've got me all wrong,
G#m7AB
You don't know what you have,
Cmaj7D
Till it's gone.
E
And I believed you.
Esus4ECmaj7
I kept holding on.
DE
You think that I can never leave you.
B7sus4
You think I'm not that strong,
E
You're wrong.
[Chorus]
BD
Love won't wait,
AC
Forever and a day.
E
Love must live in the here and now,
F#m7EAB7sus4E
Don't ask me how I know.
BD
Love takes time,
AC
But you've been takin' too long.
E
Time never waited for anyone,
F#m7E
Don't wait too long,
AB7sus4
Or I'll be gone.
F#m7E
Don't wait too long,
AB7sus4E
I'll be gone, I'll be gone.
[Bridge]
E
Oh there, there wasn't anything,
F#7
That I wouldn't do.
E
And you, you led me on,
F#7Am6
You even said, "I love you."
How can we go on,
E
When it's tearin' us apart?
GB7sus4
Are you going to break my heart?
E
'Cause I believed you.
[Chorus]
BD
Love won't wait,
AC
Forever and a day.
E
Love must live in the here and now,
F#m7EAB7sus4E
Don't ask me how I know.
BD
Love takes time,
AC
But you've been takin' too long.
E
Time never waited for anyone,
F#m7E
Don't wait too long,
AB7sus4
Or I'll be gone.
[Outro]
E
Love won't wait,
BD
Love takes time.
A
Don't let this love just pass us by.
CE
It's not too late, you must choose.
F#m7E
Love is so hard to find,
AB7sus4E
And so easy to lose.
