please note:
This song - of course - begs for a piano. So it will not sound perfectly well
when played with an (acoustic) guitar. But anyway, it's a great song and even
a bad performance can't ruin it! So have fun.



Intro:

H D#m E
H D#m E


H E
I remember it was long ago

H E D#
But when I think of her I feel it grow

C#m F#
Something begs me to come home again

C#m E F#
Something I can hardly stand


E F# H
But I'm to defy,

E F# G#m F#
I have to ignore her cry, oh

E F# H
I don't know what to do

C#m F#
I'm missing you so bad


G#m E H F#
Waiting for tomorrow, for a little ray of light

G#m E F# H F#
Waiting for tomorrow just to see your smile again

G#m E H F#
Take away my sorrow from a blistered heart of mine

G#m F# E
Where are you now; if you are there; anywhere


Please forgive me for how I decide
But before I can come with rapid strides
Don't expect you'll have to understand
Jakob needs my helping hand

First I have to go
One out of two ways which both are
Wrong and I'm to go

Waiting for tomorrow, for a little ray of light
Waiting for tomorrow just to see your smile again

Where are you now if you are there anywhere
