Kenny Rogers – She Waits (Guitar)

    G#m        A            Esus            E
She looks at a picture of a girl dressed in lace:

  C#7        F#m     D            B
A boy by her side, a smile on his face.

    G#m         A           Esus          E
And she still remembers the vows that she gave:

  C#7        F#m      D              B      B
A lifetime forever- a promise was made...

         E              G#m
Then she turns down the light,

    D           C#7
And lights up a candle.

F#m         A/E
Sits in the window,

    B7
And stares out in the night

          E             G#m
'Till the flame flickers out

        D         C#7
And the hour grows late-

 F#m          A/E
Another night passes:

E
She waits.

G#m              A          Esus            E
She picks up his letter and stares at the line

     C#7           F#m         D             B
That says "I still love you, I just need some time."

    G#m               A              Esus        E
And some nights bring questions, but still she believes

       C#7        F#m            D            B     B
'Cause he was her first love and he'll always be.

         E              G#m
Then she turns down the light,

    D           C#7
And lights up a candle.

F#m         A/E
Sits in the window,

    B7
And stares out in the night

          E             G#m
'Till the flame flickers out

        D         C#7
And the hour grows late-

 F#m          A/E
Another night passes:

Esus       E
She waits.

              G#m         A
And there's a ring in the night-

  E
A voice on the phone:

      G#m     A
"Will it be alright?"

     F#m
"You don't have to ask,

       A          B7
Just come home."

        E           G#m
Now the candle burns bright

        D       C#sus    C#
For the new day ahead,

           A
And with a smile on her face

B7  Esus
She waits.
