C                           C7             F                 
If you have a loved one and she's not with you 
                  C                       G 
Then I guess that you know what I'm going thru  
    C                    C7           F 
The night is forever and lonely winds blow  
                C          G7          C 
And I feel like cryin for time goes so slow  
  G                     F          C 
I love you I need you I want noone else 
       G                       F          C 
With a crowd all around me I'm still by myself 
          C              C7          F 
When will it be over  oh darling you know 
                 C           G7            C 
My arms are just waiting and time goes so slow 
 
F   C   G7  C  A7 
 
D                             D7           G  
You've  never known sorrow untill you have found 
                    D                      A 
Your whole heart is missing when she's not around 
D                      D7         G 
Oh what a heartache  I try not to show 
                      D 
Please won't you come back to me 
    A            D 
For time goes so slow 
  A                     G          D 
I love you I need you I want noone else 
       A                       G          D 
With a crowd all around me I'm still by myself 
     D                   D7          G 
When will it be over  oh darling you know 
                 D           A7           D 
My arms are just waiting and time goes so slow
