[Intro]
Am C F C
 
[Verse]
Am                      C
I used to know you when we were young
F                  C     E
You were in all my dreams
Am                 C
We sat together in period one
F                   C   E
Fridays at eight-fifteen
    Am                     C
Now I see your face in the strangest places
F              C    E
Movies and magazines
Am                   C
I saw you talking to Christopher Walken
F        C
On my TV screen
 
[Chorus]
    F               C
But I will wait for you
   F               Em  G
As long as I need to
           Am               C
And if you ever get back to Hackensack
F                C
I'll be here for you
 
[Break]
Am C F C
 
[Verse]
Am                  C
I used to work in a record store
F                 C   E
Now I work for my dad
Am                        C
Scraping the paint off of hardwood floors
    F                C  E
The hours are pretty bad
Am                       C
Sometimes I wonder where you are
F            C E
Probably in LA
Am                     C
That seems to be where everybody
F                  C
Else ends up these days
 
[Chorus]
    F               C
But I will wait for you
   F               Em  G
As long as I need to
           Am               C
And if you ever get back to Hackensack
F                C
I'll be here for you
 
[Solo]
F C E F   F C E F    F C G E
 
[Chorus]
    F               C
And I will wait for you
   F                Em  G
As long as I need to
           Am               C
And if you ever get back to Hackensack
F                C
I'll be here for you
           Am               C
And if you ever get back to Hackensack
F                C
I'll be here for you

Perfect chords. I think the capo should be on 3, not 4 however.

I prefer to use an E7 instead of the regular E chord. Also the chords for the solo are F, C, E7, F (x2) followed by F, C, E7, E7. That is followed by another chorus.
