Key:
C F C Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
Am F G It's better my darling, I promise you this
Ebm/C F Dm The next time I hold you, I'm not letting go
C F Am G/B Will you wait for me darling, I need to know
C F C Well, you know I'm a sailor, tomorrow we sail
Am F G It's a hard way of living, but I know it well
Ebm/C F Dm And if I surrender my life to the sea
C F Am You can marry another, it's alright with me
F G Am Though we won't be together again 'til the spring
F G Just imagine the treasures I'll bring
Continues after the ad
C F C Come lay with me, stay with me, soon I'll be gone
Am F G But I will remember you all winter long
Ebm/C F Dm And when I return to the one that I miss
C F Am Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
F C The sweeter the kiss
( F C Am F G Ebm/C )
( F Dm C F Am )
F G Am When the mornings are warm and the valleys are green
F G I'll come back from wherever I've been
C F C Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
Am F G It's better my darling, I promise you this
Ebm/C F Dm But next time I hold you, I'm not letting go
C F Am We will give up the ocean forever, I know
F C Forever I know
( F C Am F G Ebm/C )
( F Dm C F Am F C )
C F C Oh, the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss
Am F G It's better my darling, I promise you this
Ebm/C F Dm But next time I hold you, I'm not letting go
C F Am We will give up the ocean forever, I know
F C Forever I know
