A#m G#/A#
So long
          A#m
I’ve been looking too hard,
          G#/A#
I’ve been waiting too long.
A#m                    G#/A#
Sometimes I don’t know what I will find.
A#m                G#/A#
I only know it’s a matter of time,
         Fm7           D#add9
When you love someone,
         Fm7           D#6 D#
When you love someone.
   Fm7                D#/F
It feels so right, so warm and true,
Fm7                   D#/F    F7
I need to know if you feel it too.

 F#maj9        G#
   Maybe I’m wrong.
             F#maj9
   Won’t you tell me
                 G#
   If I’m coming on too strong?
        F#maj9
   This heart of mine
            G#
   Has been hurt before,
   F#maj9               G#
   This time I wanna be sure.

Chorus:
                  D#m7
     I’ve been waiting
           D#m7add11     D#m7/C#
     For a girl like you
        B            D#m   C#/F
     To come into my life.
                  D#m7       D#m7add11
     I’ve been waiting for a girl like you
      D#m7    D#m7/C#
     (Waiting for a girl),
          B              G#m
     Your loving will survive.
                  D#m7
     I’ve been waiting (waiting)
         D#m7add11   D#m7/C#
     For someone new
        B             D#m   C#/F
     To make me feel alive.
              D#m7
     Yeah, waiting
           D#m7add11
     For a girl like you
      D#m7    D#m7/C#

Instrumental: A#m | Fm7  } 2 times

A#m       G#/A#
You’re so good.
     A#m               G#/A#
When we make love it’s understood,
     A#m                    G#/A#
It’s more than a touch or a word we say.
A#m                     G#/A#
Only in dreams could it be this way.
Fm7                    D#
When you love someone,
             Fm7           D# F7
Yeah, really love someone.

 F#maj9               G#
   Now, I know it’s right
            F#maj9
   From the moment I wake up
        G#
   Till deep in the night.
           F#maj9
   There’s nowhere on earth
            G#
   That I’d rather be
               F#maj9      G#
   Than holding you tenderly.

Chorus:

     I’ve been waiting
           D#m7add11     D#m7/C#
