   D#      A#
If I could tell you one thing
D#       A#
Then I'd tell you everything
     D#       A#
I'd probably say that
                D# F
you've been on my mind
D#            A#
Since we held hands
out in the rain
 D#     A#
Smoking cigarettes to play
    D#      A#
Off all the butterflies
      D# F
I had in-side

Chorus:
           D#
And now I think
that you should know
That you've got everything
          A#
That I've wanted
for so damn long
           D#
And that I wouldn't
hesitate to trade
away everything
        A#
If you tell me that
I'm not wrong
           F
So now I think that
           D#
you should know
That I've been waiting for-
 A#      Gm  D#
-you (whoa)
              F
Yea I've been waiting
    A#      Gm D#
for you (whoa)
              F
Yea I've been waiting
    A#      Gm D#
for you (whoa)
              F
Yea I've been waiting
    A#      Gm D#
for you (whoa)
Yea I've been
F           D# F
waiting for you

If I could tell you one thing
Then I'd tell you everything
I'd probably say that you've been on my mind
Since we sat underneath the stars
As I held you in my arms
Killing just another summer night

Chorus

D#
It's funny how the
F                  A#       D# A#
best things happen sometimes
D#                     F
And how I'll always remember
              A#    D# A#
those endless nights
D#
But don't forget
       F
I regret the fact
       A#
that I have
to leave you
Gm
Right as the best
       D#
part starts
So I thought I'd
                  F
take the time to say
That I've been
waiting for-

 A#
-you (whoa)
Yea I've been waiting
for you (whoa)
Yea I've been waiting
for you (whoa)
Yea I've been waiting
for you (whoa)
Yea I've been waiting for-

Chorus:
 A#      Gm  D#
-you (whoa)
               F
Yea I've been waiting
    A#      Gm D#
for you (whoa)
              F
Yea I've been waiting
    A#      Gm D#
for you (whoa)
              F
Yea I've been waiting
    A#      Gm D#
for you (whoa)
Yea I've been
F
waiting for-
 A#      Gm  D#
-you (whoa)
               F
Yea I've been waiting
    A#      Gm Cm
for you (whoa)
              F
Yea I've been waiting
    A#
for you (whoa)
