B


Verse 1:
B                                D#m
I'm waiting up, saving all my precious time
E                           B
Losing light, I'm missing my same old us
                       D#m
Before we learned our truth too late
    E
Resigned to fate, fading away


G#m                  B
So tell me, can you turn around?
F#
I need someone to tear me down
G#m                   B
Oh, tell me, can you turn around?
F#
But either way

Chorus:
                   B
Hold me while you wait

I wish that I was good enough (Hold me while you wait)
                        G#m
If only I could wake you up (Hold me while you wait)
                               F#
My love, my love, my love, my love
                   B
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)


Verse 2:
B                              D#m
Tell me more, tell me something I don't know
       E
Did we come close to having it all?


G#m               B
If you're gonna waste my time
F#
Let's waste it right

                       B

My love, my love, my love, my love

Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait

I wish you cared a little more (Hold me while you wait)

I wish you'd told me this before (Hold me while you wait)

My love, my love, my love, my love

Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)

This is you, this is me, this is all we need

Is it true? My faith is shaken, but I still believe
E                    F#
This is you, this is me, this is all we need
G#m
So won't you stay a while?


Chorus:
                       B
And hold me while you wait
