Intro:

Em   C   G   D


Verse 1:
Em                                C
  Your coat’s still hangin by the back door,
G                               D
  Dust on the shoes you used to wear,
Em                             C
  I set one extra plate on the table,
G                    D
  Talk to your empty chair.

Chorus:
                   Em
I’m waiting at the gate,
   Em               Em
My hearts your only guide,
                 C
A lantern in the dark,
  C               C
A place for you inside,
                    G
Until you find your way,
   G             G
My arms are open wide,
                   D
I’m waiting at the gate,
                    Em
Where all our tears have dried.

Em   Cmaj7   G   D


Verse 2:
Em                                        C
  The neighbours changed the whole street faded,
G                                       D
  Your chalk marks linger on the garden wall,
Em                                 C
  Every night I trace each crooked circle,
G                           D
  Praying you still hear me call.


Chorus:
                   Em
I’m waiting at the gate,
   Em               Em
My hearts your only guide,
                 C
A lantern in the dark,
  C               C
A place for you inside,
                    G
Until you find your way,
   G             G
My arms are open wide,
                   D
I’m waiting at the gate,
                    Em
Where all our tears have dried.

My arms are open wide,

Where all our tears have dried,
