INTRO: A   A7/G#  D9       (repeat) 
 
VERSE: 
A  Amaj7/G#  D9     A/E 
If you wait for me 
Then I'll come for you 
  C#m         Dmaj7       E           
Although I've travelled far 
  C#m    D7     D         E7        {A} -- repete introdução 2x  
I always hold a place for you in my heart 
 
(repeat verse chords) 
If you think of me 
If you miss me once in a while 
Then I'll return to you 
I'll return and fill that space in your heart 
A  E      F#m    D7          E          A    E F#m 
Remembering your touch, your kiss, your warm embrace, 
     D7      E   A    E  F#m 
I'll find my way back to you 
   D7       E E7 A  -- repeat intro as before 
If you'd be waiting 
VERSE: 
If you dream of me 
Like I dream of you 
In a place that's warm and dark 
In a place where I can feel the beating of your heart 
 
Oh I've longed for you 
And I have desired 
To see your face, your smile 
To be with you wherever you are 
 
REPEAT REFRÃO 
 
VERSE: 
I've longed for you 
And I have desired 
To see your face your smile 
To be with you wherever you are 
 
LAST REFRÃO: 
Remembering your touch, your kiss, your warm embrace, 
I'll find my way back to you 
Please say you'll be waiting 
 
FINALE: 
F#m       D7    E         A       E       F#m 
Together again,  it would feel so good to be 
       D7    E      A      E        F#m 
In your arms  Where all my journeys end 
                   D7     E        A        E       F#m 
If you can make a promise  If it's one that you can keep 
  D7             E        A   E7       A  A7/G#     D9     A/E  E 
I vow to come for you  If you wait for me 
    C#m  E     D9  
And say you'll hold  
  D         E          A 
A place for me in your heart
