Anna Ternheim – The Longer The Waiting The Sweeter The Kiss (Ukulele)

        G                         C         G
Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss

                Em          C         D
It's better my darling, I promise you this

     Bm          C                        Am
The next time I hold you, I'm not letting go

         G                    C         Em      D/F#
Will you wait for me darling, I need to know

           G                   C         G
Well, you know I'm a sailor, tomorrow we sail

                   Em           C        D
It's a hard way of living, but I know it well

    Bm        C                    Am
And if I surrender my life to the sea

        G                   C            Em
You can marry another, it's alright with me

          C                    D            Em
Though we won't be together again 'til the spring

       C                        D
Just imagine the treasures I'll bring

      G                           C          G
Come lay with me, stay with me, soon I'll be gone

              Em         C          D
But I will remember you all winter long

    Bm        C                     Am
And when I return to the one that I miss

        G                       C           Em
Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss

    C           G...
The sweeter the kiss

           C                         D          Em
When the mornings are warm and the valleys are green

          C                       D
I'll come back from wherever I've been

          G                      C          G
Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss

                Em         C          D
It's better my darling, I promise you this

    Bm            C                        Am
But next time I hold you, I'm not letting go

         G                   C       Em
We will give up the ocean forever, I know

   C      G
Forever I know.
