Intro:
C majorC G+G D7D7 G+G

Verse 1:
G+G
In your haste you left and said you'd be returnin'
G+G                 D MajorD  D7D7
In my sorrow I forgot to ask you when
    G+G
In my lonely room I sit and count the hours
    C majorC       G+G        D7D7         G+G
Every minute hopin' I'll look up and you'll come walkin' in

Chorus:
G+G       C majorC  G+G
For then and only then will I stop cryin'
         C majorC    G+G         D MajorD  D7D7
And this aching breaking heart of mine will mend
G+G      C majorC        G+G
Not until I feel your arms around me
   C majorC      G+G       D7D7      G+G
Will I be happy and I live for then and only then

Verse 2:
G+G
All that's left inside my heart is just your echo
G+G                    D7D7
And the tiny thread of hope to which I cling
    G+G
But if I keep holding on maybe some day
     C majorC        G+G        D MajorD    D7D7  G+G
You'll remember where you left me and come back for me again


Chorus:
G+G       C majorC  G+G
For then and only then will I stop cryin'
         C majorC    G+G         D MajorD  D7D7
And this aching breaking heart of mine will mend
G+G      C majorC        G+G
Not until I feel your arms around me
   C majorC      G+G       D7D7      G+G  G+G
Will I be happy and I live for then and only then
