No capo, standard tuning
[C] Ooooo[G]ooo
[C] Ooooo[D]ooo
[C]A million years she'd been awake
[G]A million years she prayed
[C]For one familiar soul to help her [G]navigate her way
[C]She stood agog at the spray of stars
[G]And thought aloud each day:
I've [C]been [D]here [Em]so [Am]long
[C]Holding on, but
[Am]Some[C]how I kn[G]ow
[C]I can't be on this [Am]plan[C]et [D]alone
And [C]one [Em]waits
[C]One [Em]waits for me
[C]One [Em]waits
[C]One [Em]waits for me
[C]One [Em]waits
[C]One will wait for [D]me
And time's the [Am]only lonely curtain in be[G]tween
[C]And you could be a lion
Or a [G]buzzard or a bee
How[C]ever soft your symphony,
I'll [G]know you sing for me
You [C]too wandered the island
With a [G]strange name in your throat
And [C]when [D]you [Em]come [Am]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]Come out, come on [G]out
[C]Wherever you ar[D]e... [G]

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.
