Tone: [D]
[D]One day I [A]looked up and there you [D]were
[D]Like a simple question [G]looking for an [D]answer
[D]Now I am the whale [A]listening to some [D]inner call
[D]Swimming blindly to throw my[G]self upon your [D]shore
[D]What if I don't [A]find you when I [D]have landed?
[D]Would you leave me [G]here to die [D]on your shore stranded?
I [D]think I know why the [A]dog howls at the [D]moon
I [D]think I know why the [G]dog howls at the [D]moon
I sing [D]de[A]la, de[D]la Ngyanya, [D]dela. When [G]I'm with [D]you
[D]De[A]la, son[D]dela mama Son[D]dela, [G]I burn for [D]you
[D]I've been waiting for you [G]all my life, [A]hoping for a [Bm]miracle
[D]I've been waiting [G]day and night, [A]day and [Bm]night
[D]I've been waiting for you [G]all my life, [A]waiting for re[Bm]demption
[D]I've been waiting [G]day and night, I [A]burn for [Bm]you
A [D]blind bird [A]sings inside the cage that is my [D]heart
The [D]image of your [G]face comes to me when I'm alone [D]in the dark
If [D]I could [A]give a shape to this ache that I [D]have for you
[D]If I could [G]find the voice that says the words that [D]capture you
[D]I think I [A]know, [D]I think I know
[D]I think I [G]know, [D]I think I know
I [D]think I know why the [A]dog howls at the [D]moon
I [D]think I know why the [G]dog howls at the [D]moon
I sing [D]de[A]la, de[D]la Ngyanya, [D]dela. When [G]I'm with [D]you
[D]De[A]la, son[D]dela mama Son[D]dela, [G]I burn for [D]you
[D]I've been waiting for you [G]all my life, [A]hoping for a [Bm]miracle
[D]I've been waiting [G]day and night, [A]day and [Bm]night
[D]I've been waiting for you [G]all my life, [A]waiting for re[Bm]demption
[D]I've been waiting [G]day and night, I [A]burn for [Bm]you
Son[D]de[A]la, son[D]dela mama Son[D]dela, [G]I burn for [D]you
[D]I've been waiting for you [G]all my life, [A]hoping for a [Bm]miracle
[D]I've been waiting [G]day and night, [A]day and [Bm]night
[D]I've been waiting for you [G]all my life, [A]waiting for re[Bm]demption
[D]I've been waiting [G]day and night, I [A]burn for [Bm]you
[D]Burn for [G]you, I [A]burn for [Bm]you
[D]Burn for [G]you, I [A]burn for [Bm]you
[D]Burn for [G]you, I [A]burn for [Bm]you
[D]Burn for [G]you, I [A]burn for [Bm]you
