D           A             G         D
  One day I looked up and there you were
D               A        G              D
  Like a simple question looking for an answer
D          A       G                 D
  Now I am a whale listening to some inner call
D            A               G              D
 Swimming blindly to throw myself upon your shores
    D               A              G          D
But what if I don't find you when I-- have landed
D                    A             G             D
  Would you leave me here to die on your shore stranded?
|*   D                    A                G     D  *|
|* I think I know why the dog howls at the moon     *| x2

[Pre-Chorus]
       D   A   G   D        D   A         G        D
I say: De--la! De--la! Ngiyade--la!  When I'm with you!
D   A      G   D           D   A     G        D
De--la! Sonde--la mama! sonde--la  I burn for you!

[Chorus]
D                           G           A              Bm
  I've been waiting for you all my life   hoping for a miracle
D                 G              A          D
I've been waiting day and night, day and night
D                           G           A               Bm
  I've been waiting for you all my life   waiting for redemption
D                 G                 A          D
I've been waiting day and night   I burn for you

[Verse]
  D          A                G               D
A blind bird sings inside the cage that is my heart
    D             A                G              D
The image of your face comes to me when I'm alone in the dark
D            A               G                D
  If I could give a shape to this ache that I have for you
D            A                   G                   D
  If I could find the voice that says the words that capture you
|* D           A     G           D    *|
|*   I think I know,   I think I know *| x2
|*   D                    A                G    D *|
|* I think I know why the dog howls at the moon   *| x2

I've been waiting day and night, day and night
