No capo, standard tuning
C G
Oooooooo
C D
Oooooooo
C
A million years she'd been awake
G
A million years she prayed
C G
For one familiar soul to help her navigate her way
C
She stood agog at the spray of stars
G
And thought aloud each day:
C D Em Am
I've been here so long
C
Holding on, but
Am C G
Somehow I know
C Am C D
I can't be on this planet alone
C Em
And one waits
C Em
One waits for me
C Em
One waits
C Em
One waits for me
C Em
One waits
C D
One will wait for me
Am G
And time's the only lonely curtain in between
C
And you could be a lion
G
Or a buzzard or a bee
C
However soft your symphony,
G
I'll know you sing for me
C
You too wandered the island
G
With a strange name in your throat
C D Em Am
And when you come home
I won't let you go
Somehow I know
I can't be on this planet alone
And one waits
One waits for me
One waits
One waits for me
One waits
One will wait for me
And time's the only lonely curtain in between
C G
Come out, come on out
C D G
Wherever you are...

I hope everyone likes this version, I just love this song and I needed a way to
play it everywhere I went. I'm not completely sure on the "one waits" parts, I
experimented a ton with that, so let me know if you have suggestions.
