Verse:
  E
I gotta leave again
C#m
I don't wanna go
F#m               B
Things can be so lonely on the road
E             C#m
Could be a presidential suite
    F#m             B
But nothing's ever like your bed at home
G#m                     C#m          B       F#m
Especially when you're away from the one you love
        A    B
It gets tough
E                    C#m
Even though it hurts when I'm off at work
F#m             B
Looking at her picture soothes my pain
E          C#m     F#m                B
And for a moment I find myself right back at home again
G#m                      C#m         B           F#m
I remember, through the ups and the downs of my day
      A       B
I can say, my baby will be

Chorus:
E        C#m      F#m      B
Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for me
E        C#m      F#m      B
While the time goes tick tock tick tock

My baby will be
G#m               C#m              B
Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for me
F#m                 A         B
While the time goes tick tock tick tock

Verse:
E
She's gotta leave again
C#m
She don't wanna go
F#m         B
Hates to be away from me so long
E            C#m
She calls me everyday but
F#m                B
She can't kiss her baby on the phone
F#m
When we're hanging up
C#m             B       F#m
The tears start rolling down
A           B
But somehow
E
Even though she cries
C#m
She can find her smile
F#m                B
Cos she knows with me her heart is safe
E              C#m    F#m           B
Funny how time away, makes a loving heart grow fond again
G#m                        C#m     B            F#m
She remembers, through the ups and downs of her day
A            B
She can say, oh that i'll be...

Chorus:
E        C#m      F#m      B
Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for her
E        C#m      F#m      B
While the time goes tick tock tick tock

Her baby will be
G#m               C#m              B
Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for her
F#m                 A         B
While the time goes tick tock tick tock

       A    B
We can say, oh that we'll be

Sitting, waiting, longing, holding on for love
E        C#m      F#m      B
While the time goes tick tock tick tock
