       Bm | F#m7  } 4 times

Bm  A/B
So long
          Bm
I’ve been looking too hard,
          A/B
I’ve been waiting too long.
Bm                     A/B
Sometimes I don’t know what I will find.
Bm                 A/B
I only know it’s a matter of time,
         F#m7          Eadd9
When you love someone,
         F#m7          E6  E
When you love someone.
   F#m7               E/F#
It feels so right, so warm and true,
F#m7                  E/F#    F#7
I need to know if you feel it too.

 Gmaj9         A
   Maybe I’m wrong.
             Gmaj9
   Won’t you tell me
                 A
   If I’m coming on too strong?
        Gmaj9
   This heart of mine
            A
   Has been hurt before,
   Gmaj9                A
   This time I wanna be sure.

Chorus:
                  Em7
     I’ve been waiting
           Em7add11      Em7/D
     For a girl like you
        C            Em    D/F#
     To come into my life.
                  Em7        Em7add11
     I’ve been waiting for a girl like you
      Em7     Em7/D
     (Waiting for a girl),
          C              Am
     Your loving will survive.

         Em7add11    Em7/D

Instrumental: Bm | F#m7  } 2 times

Bm        A/B
You’re so good.
     Bm                A/B
When we make love it’s understood,
     Bm                     A/B
It’s more than a touch or a word we say.
Bm                      A/B
Only in dreams could it be this way.
F#m7                   E
When you love someone,
             F#m7          E  F#7
Yeah, really love someone.

 Gmaj9                A
   Now, I know it’s right
            Gmaj9
   From the moment I wake up
        A
   Till deep in the night.
           Gmaj9
   There’s nowhere on earth
            A
   That I’d rather be
               Gmaj9       A
   Than holding you tenderly.
