Bb              Bb6add11
Midnight hour's almost over

Bb             Dm7/A
Time is running out for the magic pair

Bb              Bb6add11
I know you gave the best that you have

Bb                         Dm7/A
but one more chance couldn't be all that hard to bear
[Chorus 1]
Bb6add11              Dm7/A
So wait for me, please

               Cm7/G
Wait for me, oh I

                         Dm7
I guess that's more than I should ask,

              Bb6add11           Dm7/A
but won't you wait for me, please

               Cm7/G
wait for me, oh I

                    F
I know the light is fading fast
[Verse 2]
Bb                   Bb6add11
You could go either way; is it easier to stay

Bb                      Dm7/A
I wonder what you'll do when your chance rolls around

Bb                      Bb6add11
But you gotta know much I - I want to keep you

Bb                      Dm7/A
When I'm away, I'm afraid it will all fall down
[Chorus 2]
Bb6add11              Dm7/A
So wait for me, please

But all the time we spent, it must be good for something

Bb                                     Cm
Please forgive all the disturbance I'm creating
