Key: F#

♫ Intro: 

G#m   A   A   Esus    E



♫ Verse 1:
    G#m        A            Esus            E
She looks at a picture of a girl dressed in lace:
  C#7        F#m     D            B
A boy by her side, a smile on his face.
    G#m         A           Esus          E
And she still remembers the vows that she gave:
  C#7        F#m      D              B      B
A lifetime forever- a promise was made  


♫ Chorus: 
         E              G#m
Then she turns down the light
D           C#7
And lights up a candle.
F#m         A/E
Sits in the window
B7
And stares out in the night
          E             G#m
'Till the flame flickers out
        D         C#7
And the hour grows late-
 F#m          A/E
Another night passes:
E
She waits.

Fill:
G#m   A   A   Esus


♫ Verse 2:
G#m              A          Esus            E
She picks up his letter and stares at the line
     C#7           F#m         D             B
That says "I still love you
I just need some time."
    G#m               A              Esus        E
And some nights bring questions, but still she believes
       C#7        F#m            D            B     B
'Cause he was her first love and he'll always be.


♫ Chorus 2: 
         E              G#m
Then she turns down the light
D           C#7
And lights up a candle.
F#m         A/E
Sits in the window
B7
And stares out in the night
          E             G#m
'Till the flame flickers out
        D         C#7
And the hour grows late-
 F#m          A/E
Another night passes:
Esus       E
She waits.


♫ Bridge: 
              G#m         A
And there's a ring in the night-
  E
A voice on the phone:
      G#m     A
"Will it be alright "
     F#m
"You don't have to ask
A          B7
Just come home."


♫ Chorus 3: 
        E           G#m
Now the candle burns bright
        D       C#sus    C#
For the new day ahead
A
And with a smile on her face
B7  Esus
She waits.


♫ Outro: 
Esus   E  Esus   E  Esus      E
