Verse  
G6                     Bb9         G6                Bb9  
Away from the city the hurt sand knocks 
     G6              Bb9             G6             Bb9  
I'm standin gal one by the desolate docks 
        G6            Bb9          G      Bb9  
In the still and the chill of the night 
G6                Bb9        G6             Bb9  
I see the horizon,   the great un known 
    G6                  Bb9                G6       Bb9  
My heart hás an ache, it's as heavy as stone 
              G6             Bb9                G6  
Will the dawn coming on make it last 

Melody 
Em7/9 Em7      A7/13       A7  D7M      G6      F#m7 Fdim 
I cover the water front,   I'm watching the sea 
Em7      G/B          A7      D6     Cdim     D   D6  
Will the one that I love be coming back to me  
Em7/9 Em7       A7/13       A7  D         G            F#m7 Fdim 
I   cover the waterfront,          in search of my love 
        Em7          G/B       A7   D     Gm  D 
And I'm covered by a deep blue sky above 

Bridge  
Em7    A7  D7M        B7  
Here am I, patiently waiting 
Em7         A7              D7M        Bm7  
Hoping and longing  oh, how I yearn 
B7                        E7M          C#m 
Where are you,   are you forgetting 
A           B7              A7/13        A7  
Do you remember,   will you return 
Em7/9 Em7      A7/13      A7      D          F#m7       
I  cover the water front,    I'm watching the sea 
Fdim        Em           Em7          G        A4/7     A7  D 
'Cause the one that I love Will soon come back to me
