Verse 1
An occasional (G minor) joint,
(F major) (G minor) a glass or two of beer (F major)
Still I would never (E flat major) have guessed (F major) that
you'd (E flat major) wind up here (F major) (A minor)
In a half- way house (F major) (G major) ,
(A minor) on a dead- end street (G major)
In (D minor) a run- down (G major) part of a
(D minor) one- horse town (G major)
But just (E flat major) do what they say,
don't (F major) worry 'bout your girl
'Cause I (E flat major) won't run away,
and I (F major) won't run around
And I (G major) won't let you down,
and without (C minor) a doubt
I'll be wait (F major) ing, (Dsus4) waiting
Waiting at the gate when they (Gsus4) let you (G major)
out (C minor) (F minor) (G major) (C minor) (F minor) (G major) (G minor)
You set the world on fire, (F major)
(G minor) dancing after dark (F major)
Now (E flat major) you're play (C minor) ing solitaire (F major)
in a (C minor) fenced- in park (F major) (A minor)
I'm not the one to judge (G major) you,
(A minor) so baby don't be (G major) scared (D minor)
No one gets a free (G major) ride,
(D minor) none of us is spared (G major)
I'll be (E flat major) back on the ninth,
I've (F major) circled the date
Three (E flat major) o'clock sharp,
and I won't (F major) be late
You've (G major) been through hell I know
what (C minor) that's all about
And I'll be wait (F major) ing, (Dsus4) waiting
Waiting at the gate when
they (Gsus4) let you (G major) out

Verse 2
(C minor) The (F minor) (G major) (C minor) doctors have so little faith
They (F minor) say you were a clas (G major) sic case
They (C minor) said the chance is eight in ten
They'd see (F minor) you back in here (G major) again
(Gsus4) (F minor)

Verse 3
But I'm counting on you (F major) (G minor) to (E flat major) prove
the doctors (F major) wrong (E flat major)
I'm imagining you, (F major)
(E flat major) healthy and strong (F major) (A minor)
Your papers all (G major) stamped,
(A minor) your eyes so bright (G major) and blue (D minor)
Looking like a baby (G major) (D major) picture of you (G major) (F major)
(E flat major) Walking down the path,
your suitcase (F major) in your hand
The howl (E flat major) ing at your back,
a brand (F major) new man
Be a (G major) perfect little camper,
be a (C minor) brave little scout
And I'll be waiting (F major) (D major) wait
(Dsus4) ing (D major)
Waiting at the gate when they
(Gsus4) let you (G major) out (C major) ...
