    Em 
    Stormy nights, I've been waiting   
             D 
    Satisfy you, oh baby   
    C 
    But his love is just a game   
                                  G 
    And he's selling you the same old lies   
                            D  C 
    And I'm hangin' on the wire   
                          D   C 
    And no closer to the fire   
                                   D C 
    And you don't hear me when I cry  
      
 
    G                        D       A  
    You may need someone to lean upon   
               G                  A 
    When he's gone, when he's gone   
    G                       D           A 
    And what is left is a love so strong   
               G                  A 
    When he's gone, when he's gone  
 
 
    G                D                C 
    You wouldn't believe to what extent   
                Em7 
    My mind is going to   
    G              D               C 
    You wouldn't deny me in your dreams   
    G               D              C 
    You couldn't belong to someone else   
                    Em7 
    If you could see me now   
    G                   D  C 
    And I'd be the only one   
               D   C            D 
    When he's gone   when he's gone 

 
    Em 
    My understanding that you remember   
                       D  
    For whom the bell tolls, oh baby   
    C 
    I swear to you I pray  
     
     That you feel the battle rage   
             G  
    For the saving of my soul  
 

                               D  C 
    And it's a struggle to survive   
                               D  C 
    You know it's keepin' us alive   
                            D  C 
    And baby I don't wanna die  
      
 
    G                      D       A  
    I will be someone you lean upon   
               G  
    When he's gone, I can see the end of time 
 
 
                  A 
    when he's gone, that makes you mine  
    G                      D            A 
    And what is left is a love so strong   
               G  
    When he's gone, I?ll let you know 
 
 
                  A 
    when he's gone, that won't let go
