1. I can't wait, wait
for you to change my mind,
Em - A Em
it's
late, I'm tryin to walk
the line.
Em
Well, it's way past midnight,
and there's some people all around,
A
some
on their way up, some on their way down.
Em A
The air burns and I'm tryin to think straight,
C B7 Em
and I
don't know how much longer I can wait.
Em A

2. I'm your man, I've tried to recover the
sweet love that we knew,
Em A
Em
you
understand that my heart can't go on beating without you.
Em
Well, your loveliness has
wounded me, I'm reeling from the blow,
A
I wish I knew what it was that
keeps me loving you so.
Em
A
I'm breathin'
hard standin' at the gate,
C B7
Em
ah,
but I don't know how much longer I can wait.

3. Skies are gray, I'm looking for anything that will bring a
happy glow,
Em A Em
night
or day, it doesn't matter where I go anymore I just go.
Em
If I ever saw you comin' I don't know what I might do,
A
I'd like to think I could
control myself, but it isn't true.
Em A
That's how it is when things
disintegrate,
C B7 Em
and I
don't know how much longer I can wait.
A Em
+ I'm doomed to love you,
I been rollin' through stormy weather,
A
B7
I'm thinkin'
of you and all the places we could roam together.
Em - A Em
4. It's mighty funny, the end of time has just begun,
Em - A Em
oh,
honey, after all these years you're
still the one.
Em
Well, I'm strollin'
through the lonely graveyard of my mind,
A
I left my life with you somewhere
back there along the line.
Em A
I thought somehow that I would
be spared this day,
C B7 Em
I don't know how much longer I
can wait.
