D                Bm
I've been waiting, going crazy
G                     Em7              A
I can't sleep when I know you're not around
D              Bm
I've been saving what you're craving
 G
Look at my face I'm about to replace
       Em7                        A
Every hurt, every tear that you cry

 Bm                              Bm7/A
Because when you feel this strong and you can't go on
Bm6/G#                        G        A
There's nothing wrong, just try to realize

Chorus:
 D              A             G
You won't ever have to say goodbye
 D              A                  Bm            G
You won't ever have to say, "I've wasted all my time"
         D
If the dream you dream ain't
  A                 Bm          C
what it seems just look into my eyes
 D              A               G
You won't ever have to say goodbye

I'm just praying, hear me saying
I'd be there if the sun refused to shine
As the night gets colder I will be your shoulder
I give you my heart until death us do part
Every day, every moment, forever

Because when you feel this strong and you can't go on
There's nothing wrong, just try to realize

Chorus

Because when you feel this strong and you can't go on
There's nothing wrong, just try to realize

Chorus
