[B]In a lonely room waiting [E]for the night to [B]fall
I hear your voice in every [F#]whip-poor-will that calls
And it takes me [B]back to a better [E]place and a sweeter [B]time
When I was [F#]yours and you were [B]mine
[E][B]
As the shadows fall and the light grows dim I see your face
I Close my eyes and feel the [F#]warmth of your embrace
As I long for y[B]ou
And for all those [E]days when hearts en[B]twined
When I was [F#]yours and you were [B]mine
[F#]When I was yours and you were mine
[E]A truer love you [B]couldn't find '
Ever waltzed across these hills and danced beneath the [F#]stars
[E]Life was sweeter than the flowers [B]blooming on the vines
When I was [F#]your and you were [B]mine
SOLO
[B]So I lay my head
On a pillow [E]soft and stained with [B]tears
I cry for you through all the [F#]long and lonely years
But when I [B]dream till the morning [E]suns comes to [B]shine
Then I'll be [F#]yours and you'll be [B]mine
Yes I will go b[B]ack to a better [E]place and a sweeter [B]time
When I was [F#]yours and you were [E]mine[B]
