Intro: D  G  D  Am6

D
I couldn't wait forever 
G
Did you expect me to 
D
I guess you thought I'd never 
G
Find somebody new 
D
I lived on dreams and promises 
G
As long as I could 
D
I couldn't wait forever 
G
The way you thought I would 


D
The lonely nights grew longer 
G
As I prayed for time to fly 
D
I lived on hopes that you'd return 
G
And that's how I got by 
D
The agony of loneliness 
G
Just got too much for me 
D
I couldn't wait forever 
G
Needing love so desperately 

Bridge

Am6
So I found new lips to kiss me 
D        G       D
New arms to hold me tight 
E7
I found new love and happiness 
A
To fill these empty nights 
D
You took my love for granted 
G
Now my heart has found a new home 


D
I couldn't wait forever 
G
Forever's just too long 
D
I couldn't wait forever 
G
Forever's just too long
