[Intro]
Eb       Ab Db            Eb   
    Tell me when, will I? tell 
Ab Db            Eb   Ab Db   
me when, will I? tell me when,
                  Eb          Ab 
 will I see you a-gain? (tell me 
Db    Eb
when)

[Verse]
Eb                                
Kelly took a lifetime searching 
             Ab      Eb           
for the bottom line, I wasn't into
                             Ab
 searching, 'cause I was doing fine
  Eb                            
I wasn't into fighting, chasing, 
                              Ab
sweating, slaving, fretting, racing
Eb                                
Any waste of effort isn't part of 
   Ab
my design
Eb                                
Billy was an inspiration, positive
   Ab       Eb                 
 & kind, un-til he let confusion 
                        Ab
overcome his youthful mind
Eb                                
Common sense dictated I could 
        Ab        Db
never be so blind and then, then I 
see you

[Chorus]
 Eb   Ab Db                     
(Tell me when) will I see you 
Eb         Ab Db                
a-gain (Tell me when) will I see
     Eb
 you a-gain
 Eb   Ab Db                     
(Tell me when) will I see you 
Eb            Ab      Db
a-gain  nah nah nah nah nah nah nah

[Verse]
Eb                                
Happenstance an episode unplanned 
         Ab       Eb          
alone in time, co-incidence the 
second chance resounding like a 
  Ab
rhyme
Eb                                
How paths may cross against the 
                          Ab
odds to wreck the plans you made
Eb                                
Among the crowd a face that smiles
                     Ab
 to melt your masque-rade
Eb                           
If only I could see you says a 
                  Ab     Eb       
stranger deep inside & lets you 
know that when you were so sure you 
       Ab
really lied
Eb                             
If only I could see you says the 
                    Ab
voice within your brain
    Eb                             
And quietly, insistently it says it
        Ab       Db
 once a-gain and then, I really need
 to know

[Chorus]
 Eb   Ab Db                     
(Tell me when) will I see you 
Eb         Ab Db                
a-gain (Tell me when) will I see
     Eb
 you a-gain
 Eb   Ab Db                     
(Tell me when) will I see you 
Eb            Ab      Db         
a-gain  nah nah nah nah nah nah 
 Eb  Ab  Eb  Ab   Eb   Ab Db  
nah                 Tell me 
  Eb   Ab Db
when, Tell me when

[Bridge]
Eb
It wouldn't seem so lonely, if only 
I could see you baby, you can be 
free
Eb
If only I could see you you'll never
 have to doubt me
Eb
If only I could see you baby, you 
could free me, if only I could see 
you, if only I could see you

[Chorus]
 Eb   Ab Db

(Tell me when) will I see you 
Eb         Ab Db                
a-gain (Tell me when) will I see
     Eb
 you a-gain
Ab Db                 Eb    Ab Db   
               Eb    N.C.   Db

 really need to know
