                    Em
I have waited oh so long
                         D            Dsus4  D
Please don't tell me baby I was wrong
                Em
Dreaming of you every night
                        D             Dsus4  D
Holding back until the time was right

Chorus:
                  A
I've counted the days
(Day after day)
                   D
Since we've been apart
                   A
Now I've found my way
(I've found my way)
                    D
Right back to your heart

I've been searching for you everywhere
Calling you but you were never there
Seeking in the dark of night
Hoping one day you would shine a light

Chorus:
I've counted each day
(Day after day, ooh)
Since we've been apart
(Ooh, ooh)
Now I've found my way
(I've found my way, ooh)
Right back to your heart (Ooh)

                      Em
I have waited oh, so long
                                   D  Dsus4  D
Please don't tell me baby, I was wrong
                      Em
Dreaming of you every night
(Every night, every night)
                       D             Dsus4  D
Holding back 'til the time was right
  Em                  D  Dsus4  D
Oh, I have waited so long
  Em                      D Dsus4  D
Ah, don't tell me I was wrong

            Em                            D Dsus4 D
I dream of you  (I'm dreaming of you baby)

           Em D Dsus4 D Dsus4
Don't go away
