 INTRO - Play this progression - listen to the song to determine chord changes - it's
 identical to the chorus, except that the final "F" is held until the verse begins

 VERSE 1
 
 Bb              A#6add11   
 Midnight hour's almost over
 Bb             Dm7/A                  
 Time is running out for the magic pair
 Bb              A#6add11              
 I know you gave the best that you have
 Bb                         Dm7/A                     
 but one more chance couldn't be all that hard to bear
 
 CHORUS 1
 
 A#6add11              Dm7/A 
 So wait for me, please
                Cm7/G 
 Wait for me, oh I
                          Dm7          
 I guess that's more than I should ask,
               A#6add11           Dm7/A 
 but won't you wait for me, please
                Cm7/G 
 wait for me, oh I
                     F          
 I know the light is fading fast
 
 VERSE 2
 
 Bb                   A#6add111               
 You could go either way; is it easier to stay
 Bb                      Dm7/A                        
 I wonder what you'll do when your chance rolls around
 Bb                      A#6add11              
 But you gotta know much I - I want to keep you
 Bb                      Dm7/A                  
 When I'm away, I'm afraid it will all fall down
 
 CHORUS 2
 
 A#6add11              Dm7/A

 wait for me, oh I
                     F          
 I know the light is fading fast

 But all the time we spent, it must be good for something
 Bb                                     Cm
