  Give me one more minute with

       Am            G         
Every hope in the world in those

bright blue eyes

I'm still dancing alone with the

And I'm coming back for you
        Dm                       
I can hear your voice calling and

I'll be there soon

        F
I can see you there
          Bb    F         C
In the bedroom by the stairs

But when those trumpets sound
         Bb          F         C
When the good Lord calls my name

It took twenty-five years but I 
    Bb     F
finally see
            Dm                 
It took twenty-five years but I 
   Bb      F
finally see
