VERSE 1:
A      G     D         G  
Hold me closer one more time, 
A        G      D     G  
Say that you love me in your last goodbye, 
A      G     D       G  
Please forgive me for my sins, 
A              G  
Yes, I swam dirty waters, 
    D     G  
But you pushed me in, 

VERSE 2: (repeat progression)

I've seen your face under every sky, 
Over every border and on every line, 
You know my heart more than I do, 
We were the greatest, me and you, 

BRIDGE:
E  
But we had time against us, 
   D  
And miles between us, 
   A  
The heavens cried, 
       E  
I know I left you speechless, 
      G            D  
But now the sky has cleared and it's blue, 
    A           G  
And I see my future in you, 

CHORUS:

E            D                A              G  
I'll be waiting for you when you're ready to love me again, 
E  
I put my hands up, 
D      A  
I'll do everything different, 
     G  
I'll be better to you, 
E            D               A               G  
I'll be waiting for you when you're ready to love me again, 
E  
I put my hands up, 
D      A  
I'll be somebody different, 
     G        E  
I'll be better to you, 

VERSE 3:

Let me stay here for just one more night, 
Build your world around me, 
And pull me to the light, 
So I can tell you that I was wrong, 
I was a child then, but now I'm willing to learn, 

BRIDGE:

But we had time against us, 
And miles between us, 
The heavens cried, I know I left you speechless, 
But now the sky has cleared and it's blue, 
And I see my future in you, 

CHORUS:

I'll be waiting for you when you're ready to love me again, 
I put my hands up, 
I'll do everything different, 
I'll be better to you, 
I'll be waiting for you when you're ready to love me again, 
I put my hands up, 
I'll be somebody different, 
I'll be better to you, 

BRIDGE:

Time against us, 
Miles between us, 
Heavens cried, 
I know I left you speechless, 
Time against us, 
Miles between us, 
Heavens cried, 
I know I left you speechless, 
I know I left you speechless, 
I'll be waiting, 

CHORUS: 

I'll be waiting for you when you're ready to love me again, 
I put my hands up, 
I'll do everything different, 
I'll be better to you, 
I'll be waiting for you when you're ready to love me again, 
I put my hands up, 
I'll be somebody different, 
I'll be better to you.
