D                       G
I'm waiting tonight for you to tell me
A                        G        D
Do you still love me and will you remain
D                         G
My heart is breaking with each passing hour
A                               D
Please don't let me love you in vain


A                    G                  D
I used to think your love would always save me
A                     D
And that you'd always stay right by my side
B                Em                A
But I can see a change coming over you
        A
And the tears I cried just can't hide no


D                       G
I'm waiting tonight for you to tell me
A                        G        D
Do you still love me and will you remain
D                         G
My heart is breaking with each passing hour
A                               D
Please don't let me love you in vain

A                   G                D
I can't pretend that love is just a passtime
A                  D
And that you never meant to be with me
B                        Em          A
So darling please don't leave me all alone
          A
So run it by your memory


D                       G
I'm waiting tonight for you to tell me
A                        G        D
Do you still love me and will you remain
D                         G
My heart is breaking with each passing hour
A                               D
Please don't let me love you in vain
   A                                D
So please don't let me love you in vain
