 but the dawn is breaking, it's early morn,
     C                    F     
 the taxi's waiting, he's blowing his horn
    C                F              G
 al-ready i'm so lonesome i could die.
 
 C                 F

 C                   F
 tell me that you'll wait for me
 C                F              G           
 hold me like you'll never let me go.
