   [Verse 1]
    A                          Asus2         E
The sun beats hard on an empty beach where I tried so hard
             Esus4     D     D6      F#m  F#m11  E   Esus4
But couldn't reach the stars in your eyes
A                     Asus2  E                        Esus4
You were just a child when I came to you and we were friends
      D                    D6           F#m  F#m11  E   Esus4
'Till love stepped in, and you stepped away

   [Verse 2]
A                         Asus2
I would lie and curse the day
    E                  Esus4  D
And visit places where we lay alone
    D6        F#m    F#m11     E   Esus4
And find them turned to stone


   [Chorus]
            A                 Asus2
Because you hold the heart of someone new
     E             F#m D
I'll take a chance on  time
A                 Asus2
Hold out here for something true
E            A  D
Standing out of line
    F#m            F#m11            A            E  D
But I would wait a hundred years to hear you say my name
F#m             F#m11               E       Esus4 A
The way you did before he came, the way you will again


   [Verse 3]
A                            Asus2
I fell apart and you came to me
  E                     Esus4   D
I never can explain how much it turned me round
     D6        F#m    F#m11   E   Esus4
Much more than upside down


   [Chorus]
            A                 Asus2
Because you hold the heart of someone new
     E             F#m D
I'll take a chance on  time
A                 Asus2
Hold out here for something true
E            A  D
Standing out of line
    F#m            F#m11            A            E  D
But I would wait a hundred years to hear you say my name
F#m             F#m11               E       Esus4 A
The way you did before he came, the way you will again


   [Bridge]
    Esus4      F#m      E          D    Dsus4  D
And I love the sun, and I need the rain
    Esus4      A                        Asus2   E
And I know the way that you left me was only to test me
    D         F#m  E
And I was vain
    Esus4     F#m         E         D    Dsus4  D
And I will be strong, and I will be warm
    Esus4      A                   Asus2          E
And I will let no one come near me until you will hear me
     D         F#m  E
Just once again

   [Verse 4]
A                             Asus2
And time will wear a mountain down
    E                   Esus4     D
And make a lover of the clown who laughed too long
    D6          F#m   F#m11   E   Esus4
And colored you wrong


   [Chorus]
      A                 Asus2
Now I hold the heart of someone new
     E             F#m  D
I'll take a chance on   time
A                 Asus2
Hold out here for something true
E            A  D
Standing out of line
    F#m            F#m11            A            E  D
But I would wait a hundred years to hear you say my name
F#m             F#m11               E       Esus4 A
The way you did before he came, the way you will again


   [Outro]
    F#m            F#m11            A            E  D
But I would wait a hundred years to hear you say my name
F#m             F#m11               E       Esus4 A
The way you did before he came, the way you will again
