[Intro]
F#

[Verse 1]
F#
 Living's too short

 You are the watch while time is ticking
F#
 I forgot how fast we move

 Let's be efficient
        D#m
 Before I've got to go

 Before I've got to go
     F#
 And when I get back

 We'll make up all the time that we've been missing
F#
 If you're in a slump

 You better fix that posture, won't be long
        D#m
 Before I've got to go

 Before I've got to go


[Pre-Chorus]
C#
 You better wait, better wait

 Better wait for me
C#
 You better wait, better wait

 Better wait for me


[Chorus]
F#
 When I'm away
           D#m        B
 You'll be all I ever think about
F#
 When I come home
           D#m        B
 You'll be all I ever talk about
F#
 When I'm away 
                  D#m         B 
 You'll sing this song as you think of me
F#                   D#m
 When I'm away, I'm away
          B
 Will you wait for me?


[Verse 2]
F#
 If you believe, if you believe

 If you believe, then show
F#
 Don't be afraid

 I'm more than a shot in the dark
            D#m
 But, baby, I've got to know

 Before I've got to go
F#
 If you believe, if you believe

 If you believe, then show
F#
 Don't be short-sighted, blindsided

 Before I get up, get up and go
       D#m
 Cause I've got to know

 Before I've got to go


[Pre-Chorus]
C#
 You better wait, better wait

 Better wait for me
C#
 You better wait, better wait

 Better wait for me


[Chorus]
F#
 When I'm away
           D#m        B
 You'll be all I ever think about
F#
 When I come home
           D#m        B
 You'll be all I ever talk about
F#
 When I'm away 
                  D#m         B 
 You'll sing this song as you think of me
F#                   D#m
 When I'm away, I'm away
          B
 Will you wait for me?
F#                 D#m
 Will you wait for me?
                   F#   
 Will you wait for me?


[Chorus]
F#
 When I'm away
           D#m        B
 You'll be all I ever think about
F#
 When I come home
           D#m        B
 You'll be all I ever talk about
F#
 When I'm away 
                  D#m         B 
 You'll sing this song as you think of me
F#                   D#m
 When I'm away, I'm away
          B
 Will you wait for me?
F#
 When I'm away
           D#m        B
 You'll be all I ever think about
F#
 When I come home
           D#m        B
 You'll be all I ever talk about
F#
 When I'm away 
                  D#m         B 
 You'll sing this song as you think of me
F#                   D#m
 When I'm away, I'm away
          B
 Will you wait for me?
