D We said we'd walk together, baby come what may Bm That come the twilight, should we loose our way G D If as we're walking, your hand should slip free Bm I'll wait for you G should I fall behind D Wait for me We swore we'd travel, darlin', side by side We'd help each other stay in stride But each lover's steps fall so differently But I'll wait for you And if I should fall behind Wait for me Now everyone dreams of a love lasting and true But you and I know what this world can do So let's make our steps clear that the other may see And I'll wait for you If I should fall behind Wait for me Now there's a beautiful river in the valley ahead There 'neath the oak's bough, soon we will be wed Should we lose each other in the shadow of the evening trees I'll wait for you And should I fall behind Wait for me Darlin', I'll wait for you Should I fall behind Wait for me Yea, I'll wait for you Should I fall behind Wait for me I'll wait for you Should I fall behind Wait for me You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsBm D G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
