Intro: D MajorD A augmentedA G+G D MajorD (4x)

D MajorD      A augmentedA       G+G     D MajorD
 One day I looked up and there you were
D MajorD        A augmentedA    G+G       D MajorD
 Like a simple question looking for an answer
D MajorD     A augmentedA    G+G         D MajorD
 Now I am a whale listening to some inner call
D MajorD      A augmentedA        G+G       D MajorD
 Swimming blindly to throw myself upon your shores
  D MajorD        A augmentedA       G+G     D MajorD
But what if I don't find you when I-- have landed
D MajorD          A augmentedA       G+G       D MajorD
 Would you leave me here to die on your shore stranded?
|*  D MajorD          A augmentedA        G+G   D MajorD *|
|* I think I know why the dog howls at the moon   *| 2x

Pre-chorus:
    D MajorD  A augmentedA  G+G  D MajorD    D MajorD  A augmentedA     G+G    D MajorD
I say: De--la! De--la! Ngiyade--la! When I'm with you!
D MajorD  A augmentedA   G+G  D MajorD      D MajorD  A augmentedA   G+G    D MajorD
De--la! Sonde--la mama! sonde--la I burn for you!

Chorus:
D MajorD              G+G      A augmentedA       B minorBm
 I've been waiting for you all my life  hoping for a miracle
D MajorD         G+G       A augmentedA     D MajorD
I've been waiting day and night, day and night
D MajorD              G+G      A augmentedA        B minorBm
 I've been waiting for you all my life  waiting for redemption
D MajorD         G+G         A augmentedA     D MajorD
I've been waiting day and night  I burn for you

Intro (2x)

D MajorD     A augmentedA        G+G        D MajorD
A augmentedA blind bird sings inside the cage that is my heart
  D MajorD       A augmentedA        G+G       D MajorD
The image of your face comes to me when I'm alone in the dark
D MajorD      A augmentedA        G+G        D MajorD
 If I could give a shape to this ache that I have for you
D MajorD      A augmentedA          G+G          D MajorD
 If I could find the voice that says the words that capture you
|* D MajorD      A augmentedA   G+G      D MajorD  *|
|*  I think I know,  I think I know *| 2x
|*  D MajorD          A augmentedA        G+G  D MajorD *|
|* I think I know why the dog howls at the moon  *| 2x
