Intro: E-F#m-E-F#m

E   F#m                   E           F#m
Hey baby, why'd you turn away, I was about to say
E         F#m                            A                     B
Something baby, I thought would make you smile, at least for a little while but,
E       F#m                     E                   F#m
Oh well baby, that's the way it goes, right from my head to my toes,
E                      F#m                   A                         B
And you're the first to know that I've got a brilliant plan, I hope you understand.

         E           B           F#m   A 
I want to meet in two thousand and three,
         E            B          F#m      A
I want to see what the future can bring to me,
      F#m          B                 E       A
I wanna, and when I do, I'll meet you here my darling,
F#m                B             E               D            A
Yeah, and when I'm free, I'll be waiting where I said I would be,
     B              E
Oh my love, will you wait for me.

E          F#m                      E                     F#m
What we've found is such a precious thing, that's why I'm trying to sing but,
E                F#m                   A                                     B
Before I lose my nerve, I better write down these words, 'cause I don't know what you heard.

         E           B           F#m   A 
I want to meet in two thousand and three,
         E            B          F#m      A
I want to see what the future can bring to me,
      F#m          B                 E       A
I wanna, and when I do, I'll meet you here my darling,
F#m                B             E               D            A
Yeah, and when I'm free, I'll be waiting where I said I would be,
     B              E
Oh my love, will you wait for me.

C#m                       A                       F#m     Abm    A   Abm
And you know that I won't change my mind, I made a promise to be true,
C#m                       A                        F#m                  B
Let them say that it's a selfish game, but I won't play with anyone but you.
