Then And Only Then

C  G  D7  G

[Verse 1]
G
In your haste you left and said 
you'd be returnin'
G                              
In my sorrow I forgot to ask you 
   D   D7
when
       G
In my lonely room I sit and count 
the hours
       C             G            
Every minute hopin' I'll look up 
    D7                 G
and you'll come walkin' in


[Chorus]
G             C    G
For then and only then will I stop 
cryin'

                 C        G       
And this aching breaking heart of 
           D   D7
mine will mend
G            C               G
Not until I feel your arms around me
     C           G              
Will I be happy and I live for 
D7            G
then and only then

[Solo]

[Verse 2]
G
All that's left inside my heart is 
just your echo
G                                 
And the tiny thread of hope to 
      D7
which I cling
       G
But if I keep holding on maybe some 
day
          C                G      
You'll remember where you left me 
          D       D7   G
and come back for me again


[Chorus]
G             C    G
For then and only then will I stop 
cryin'
                 C        G       
And this aching breaking heart of 
           D   D7
mine will mend
G            C               G
Not until I feel your arms around me
     C           G              
Will I be happy and I live for 
D7            G   G
then and only then
