Intro: G  C/G  Cm/G  G
                G
While she lays sleeping
                   G7/B              C
I stay out late at night and sing my songs
G/B  Am7              D7         D/C    Bm7
And sometimes all the nights can be so long
         Em7                         Am7
And it's good when I finally make it home 
    D4/7
All alone
      D7       G
While she lays dreaming
             G7/B                  C
I try to get undressed without the light
G/B       Am7    D7       D/C      Bm7
Then she quietly says how was your night
       Em7                        Am7
And I come to her and say it was all right - 
D7             G       D4/7
And I hold her tight
Chorus
         G4sus      G
And she believes in me
G4sus      G                  F#m5-/7
I'll never know just what she sees in me
  B7                      Em     Em7+  Em/D#
I told her someday if she was my girl
        Em7 Em/D   Em6 Em/C#     Am7
I could change the world with my little songs  
      D4sus
I was wrong
            G4sus    G
But she has faith in me
G4sus    G            F#m5-/7
And so I go on trying faithfully
B7                           Em
And who knows, maybe on some special night
Em7+  Em7     Em6
If my song is right
       Am7
I will find a way
D4/7
Find a way
                G
While she lays waiting
                 G7/B          C
I stumble to the kitchen for a bite
G/B    Am7        D7        D/C  Bm7
Then I see my old guitar in the night
     Em7                         Am7
Just waiting for me like a secret friend 
             D7sus4
And there's no end
      D7       G
While she lies crying
               G7/B       C
I fumble with a melody or two
G/B      Am7              D7     D/C          Bm7
Then I'm torn between the things that I should do
         Em7                           Am7       D7  G
Then she says to wake her up when I am through
                      D4/7
God her love is true
Chorus
          G      C/E       Cm/G      G
While she waits, while she waits for me
