G+G C/GC/G G+G C/GC/G
Jimmy was a shadow the youngest of three boys
G+G D MajorD C majorC
How he longed to feel the light
G+G C/GC/G G+G C/GC/G
Jimmys older brothers sure could make some noise
G+G D MajorD C majorC
So he became the quiet type
B minorBm C majorC G+G C majorC
But deep in side he had some powerful dreams
B minorBm C majorC G+G
He'd think a bout them then he'd smile
G+G D MajorD C/BC/B C majorC
And he was gone, gone, to somewhere far be yond
D MajorD G+G D MajorD C/BC/B C majorC
Where he was strong, strong, shining in the sun
D MajorD B minorBm D MajorD G+G C majorC
They say that some day the meekest heart will sing
G+G D MajorD G+G C/GC/G G+G C/GC/G
There was Jimmy waiting in the wings
G+G C/GC/G G+G C/GC/G
Susie was a waitress morning noon and night
G+G D MajorD C majorC
But she never did comp lain
G+G C/GC/G G+G C/GC/G
Jimmy'd stopped for lunch there at least a thousand times
G+G D MajorD C majorC
But one Monday something changed
B minorBm C majorC G+G C majorC
She leaned a cross him with some chocolate pie
B minorBm C majorC G+G
Then he looked into her eyes
G+G D MajorD C/BC/B C majorC
And he was gone, gone, to somewhere far be yond
D MajorD G+G D MajorD C/BC/B C majorC
His heart beat strong strong he knew she was the one
D MajorD B minorBm D MajorD G+G C majorC
They say that some day the meekest heart will sing
G+G D MajorD G+G
Love found Jimmy waiting in the wings
B minorBm G+G C majorC D MajorD
And when he held her for the very first time
B minorBm G+G C/BC/B C majorC
He found the one thing hed been missing all his life
G+G D MajorD C/BC/B C majorC
And they were gone, gone, to somewhere far be yond
D MajorD G+G D MajorD C/BC/B C majorC
Their love was strong strong two hearts beat as one
D MajorD B minorBm D MajorD G+G C majorC
He stood be side her and she put on his ring
G+G D MajorD FF
And when she smiled how his heart did sing
D MajorD B minorBm D MajorD G+G C majorC
They say that some day the meekest heart will sing
C/BC/B C majorC D MajorD G+G
So re member if youre waiting in the wings
