  Am                 F                    G

1.    I hear the ticking of the clock,

          G7                   Am                        - F - G - E

    I'm lying here, the room's pitch dark,

Am                  F                     G

    I wonder where you are tonight,

          G7                  Am             - F - G - E

    no answer on the telephone.

                   F                   C                    - Dm - C

    And the night goes by so very slow,

              F                         C                - Dm - G         C

    oh, I hope that it won't end, though,                all alone.

 

Dm     Bb      F               C             Dm

    Till now, I always got by on my own,

    Bb               F                  C

I never really cared until I met you.

Dm - Bb                     F                     C

             And now it chills me to the bone

  F            Bb          C          F           Bb          C

How do I get you alone ? How do I get you alone ?

 

   Am                            F                        G

2.      You don't know how long I have wanted

         G7                          Am           F     - G   E

    to touch your lips and hold you  tight,        oh.

Am                          F                        G

    You don't know how long I have waited,

         G7                  Am           F       - G - E

    and I was gonna tell you tonight.

                  F            C                  - Dm - C

    But the secret is still my own,

                F                       C                 - Dm - G        C

   and my love for you is still unknown,               all alone.

 

                                       Dm - Bb - F - C

+  Dm - Bb - F - C      +           Oh …...!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Dm     Bb      F               C             Dm

    Till now, I always got by on my own,

    Bb               F                  C

I never really cared until I met you.

Dm - Bb                     F                     C

             And now it chills me to the bone
