Joe Nichols
I'll Wait for You 
CThe snow in Montana Gwas three feet high
CThe lady at the counter said: GThere ain't no flights
CAnd so he called her on the Gtelephone
He said: I'll rent a car and CI'll drive home
CAnd she said: I'll wait for you
GLike I did last year
CAt Christmas time with Gyour family here
CAnd your truck broke down Gout in San Antone
And the Cgifts stayed wrapped Guntil you got home
Oh, this ain't nAmothin' new
No Chord          C
Sweetheart, I'll wait for you
Now he's on his cell phone in a Coupe Deville
Talkin' to the one he loves and always will
His heart is breakin' 'cause she's there alone
Her heart is achin' 'cause she wants him home
She says: I'll wait for you like in '68
When our child was due, but I said, he'll have to wait
Until his dad gets here and stands by my side
Remember, Dear, our son's first cry
Oh, this ain't nothin' new
Sweetheart, I'll wait for you
He didn't stop all day to eat a bite
And he finally got there around midnight
The doctor said, she's in a better place
She said to give this you this note just in case
And it said, I'll wait for you at Heaven's gate
Oh, I don't care how long it takes
And I'll tell Saint Pete I can't come in
Without my love and my best friend
Oh, this ain't nothin' new
Sweetheart, I'll wait for you
P.S. I love you, too
Sweetheart, I'll wait for you

Joe Nichols

I'll Wait for You

C G

The snow in Montana was three feet high

C G

The lady at the counter said: There ain't no flights

C G

And so he called her on the telephone

He said: I'll rent a car and I'll drive home

And she said: I'll wait for you

Like I did last year

C G

At Christmas time with your family here

C G

And your truck broke down out in San Antone

C G

And the gifts stayed wrapped until you got home

Oh, this ain't nothin' new

No Chord C

Sweetheart, I'll wait for you

Now he's on his cell phone in a Coupe Deville

Talkin' to the one he loves and always will

His heart is breakin' 'cause she's there alone

Her heart is achin' 'cause she wants him home

She says: I'll wait for you like in '68

When our child was due, but I said, he'll have to wait

Until his dad gets here and stands by my side

Remember, Dear, our son's first cry

Oh, this ain't nothin' new

Sweetheart, I'll wait for you

He didn't stop all day to eat a bite

And he finally got there around midnight

The doctor said, she's in a better place

She said to give this you this note just in case

And it said, I'll wait for you at Heaven's gate

Oh, I don't care how long it takes

And I'll tell Saint Pete I can't come in

Without my love and my best friend

Oh, this ain't nothin' new

Sweetheart, I'll wait for you

P.S. I love you, too

Sweetheart, I'll wait for you
