Danny Doyle - If You Could Wait

      [Intro]
 
F  Bb  Gm  F


[Verse]

F               Bb         F
If you could wait a moment longer,
              Bb  Gm           F
The sun would rise before the morn.
                     Bb          F
The shadows from the skies would vanish,
        Bb  Gm            F
And the day   be twice as long.


[Chorus]

      Bb  Gm      F
Every minute be an hour,
      Bb Gm         F
Every hour a loving kiss,
       Gm                  C
Every kiss a fresh spring flower,
                        F
Sparkling in the morning mist.

              Bb         F
If you were here again beside me,
            Bb   Gm        F
The running waters I would hold.
                       Bb      F
And turn their flow to you, my lover,
             Bb  Gm             F
To wash your feet, your hair of gold.


[Chorus]

      Bb  Gm            F
Every drop    a silver crystal,
      Bb  Gm       F
Every crystal all aglow,
      Gm                C
Every glow a breath of beauty,
                           F
From your skin like dimpled snow.

                   Bb                F
But since you've gone, the light has faded,
          Bb  Gm        F
Birds are silent in the wood.
                     Bb       F
The grass still trampled in a hollow,
          Bb Gm             F
Marks the spot on which you stood.


[Chorus]

      Bb Gm         F
Every tree a sad reminder,
      Bb       F
Every branch a memory bare,
      Gm                 C
Every memory tinged with sorrow
              Gm C          F         
That you are gone  and I still care.


[Outro]
