Lewis Capaldi - Hold Me While You Wait

[intro]
B

[verse 1]
B                             F#
I'm waitin' up, savin' all my precious time
G#m                           B
Losin' light, I'm missin' my same old us
                      F#
Before we learned our truth too late
   G#m
Resigned to fate, fadin' away
G#m          F#
So tell me, can you turn around?
B              F#
I need someone to tear me down
G#m                   B
Oh, tell me, can you turn around?
F#
But either way

[chorus]
                      B
Hold me while you wait
                              F#
I wish that I was good enough (Hold me while you wait)
                           G#m
If only I could wake you up (Hold me while you wait)
                                  F#
My love, my love, my love, my love
                        B
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)

[verse 2]
B                               F#
Tell me more, tell me something I don't know
G#m                     F#
Could we come close to havin' it all?
G#m
If you're gonna waste my time
F#
Let's waste it right

[chorus]
                          B
And hold me while you wait
                            F#
I wish that I was good enough (Hold me while you wait)
                           G#m
If only I could wake you up (Hold me while you wait)
                                  F#
My love, my love, my love, my love
                      B
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)
                              F#
I wish you cared a little more (Hold me while you wait)
                               G#m
I wish you'd told me this before (Hold me while you wait)
                                 F#
My love, my love, my love, my love
                      B
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)

[bridge]
G#m                  F#
This is you, this is me, this is all we need
B                        F#
Is it true? My faith is shaken, but I still believe
G#m                   F#
This is you, this is me, this is all we need
B             F#
So won't you stay a while?

I wish that I was good enough (Hold me while you wait)

My love, my love, my love, my love
F#
Won't you stay a while? (Hold me while you wait)
B
I wish you cared a little more (Hold me while you wait)
F#
I wish you'd told me this before (Hold me while you wait)

My love, my love, my love, my love
