[Verse 1]
A D A
Come and talk of all the things we did today.
A D A
Here and laugh about our funny little ways.
D* A/C#* Bm** A
While we have a few minutes to breathe,
D* A/C#* Bm** A
then I know that it's time you must leave.
[Chorus]
G** D** Dsus2* D*
But, darling, be home soon,
Dsus4** D** A A**
I couldn't bear to wait an extra minute if you dawdled.
G** D** Dsus2* D*
My darling be home soon,
Dsus4** D** A A
it's not just these few hours but I've been waiting since I toddled
D* A/C#* Bm* E7* A A
for the great relief of having you to talk to.
[Verse 2]
A D A
And now a quarter of my life is almost past,
D A
I think I've come to see myself at last.
D* A/C#* Bm* E* A
And I see that the time spent confused
D* A/C#* Bm* E* A
was the time that I spent without you
D* A/C#* Bm* A* E7 E7
and I feel myself in bloom, so, darling.
[Chorus]
G** D** Dsus2* D*
So, darling, be home soon,
Dsus4** D** A A**
I couldn't bear to wait an extra minute if you dawdled.
G** D** Dsus2* D*
My darling be home soon,
Dsus4** D** A A
it's not just these few hours but I've been waiting since I toddled
D* A/C#* Bm* E7* A A
for the great relief of having you to talk to
[Interlude]
| A | D | A |
| A | D | A |
| D A/C# Bm A | E7 | E7 |
So, darling ...
[Chorus]
G** D** Dsus2* D*
But, darling, be home soon,
Dsus4** D** A A**
I couldn't bear to wait an extra minute if you dawdled.
G** D** Dsus2* D*
My darling be home soon,
Dsus4** D** A A
it's not just these few hours but I've been waiting since I toddled

for the great relief of having you to talk to.
[Verse 3]
A D A
Go and beat your crazy head against the sky.
A D A
Try and see beyond the houses and your eyes.
D* A/C#* Bm* A* E7 E7
It's OK to shoot the moon, just, darling ...
[End-Chorus]
G** D** Dsus2* D*
My darling, be home soon,
Dsus4** D** A A**
I couldn't bear to wait an extra minute if you dawdled.
G** D** Dsus2* D*
My darling be home soon,
Dsus4** D** A A
it's not just these few hours but I've been waiting since I toddled
D* A/C#* Bm* E7* A*
for the great relief of having you to talk to.
