VERSE:
            C            F
Leave on a light in the kitchen
                C
Leave a little space
          F
in those sheets
              C
I'll be home soon,
                F
stay there and listen
             C          G      C
Don't go to sleep, wait up for me
              C
Open all the blinds and
                F
watch down the driveway
                    C
Wear your favorite shirt,
               F
you stole from me
                        C
Chills running down my skin
                F
just thinking 'bout you
             C          G      C
Don't go to sleep, wait up for me
                             C
Hope you're pacing back and forth,
                 F
up and down the highway
               C
I'll be right there,
                       F
I'm turning down your street
                     C
You come and get me smiling,
                        F
been thinking 'bout it all day
             Am         G      C
Don't go to sleep, wait up for me
