I was the one who had it all;

I was the mas ter of my (F)fate.

I nev er need ed (Am)an y (G)bod y in my (Am)life;

I learned the (C)truth too (Gsus)late.

I’ll nev er shake a way the pain.

I close my eyes, but she’s still (F)there.

I let her steal in (Am)to my (G)mel an chol y (Am)heart;

it’s more than (C)I can (Gsus)late.

(G)bear.

(G)Now I (F)know she’ll nev er (C)leave me,

e ven (F)as she runs a (C)way.

She will (F)still tor (E)ment me, (Am)calm me, (F)hurt me, (D7)move me, (D9)come what (G7sus)may.

(Dm7)Wast ing in my lone ly (C)tow er,

(F)wait ing by an (E)o pen (Am)door,

I’ll fool my self she’ll walk right (Ddim)in,

and be with (G7sus)me for ev er (C)more.

I curse the fad ing of the (F)light.

Though she’s al (Am)read y flown so (G)far be yond my (Am)reach,

she’s nev er (C)out of sight.

Now I (F)know she’ll nev er (C)leave me,

She will (F)still in (E)spire me, (Am)be a part of (D7)ev ’ry (D9)thing I (G7sus)do.

(F)Wast ing in my lone ly (C)tow er,

(F)wait ing by an (E)o pen (Am)door,

I’ll fool my self she’ll walk right (C)in,

and as the (Em7)long, long nights be (Am)gin,

I’ll think of (Em7)all that might have (Am)been,

wait ing (C)here
