[E] [C] [G] [D] [A] 

[E] [C]He be[G]lieved she was a [D]gift sent from [A]above [E]
[C]She was the [G]kind of girl that [D]he'd been dreaming [A]of [E]
[C]He [G]knew that he was [D]bound to fall in [A]love
with Made[C]line [G] [D] 

[E] [C]They lived to[G]gether so in [D]love for several [A]years [E]
[C]Until the [G]day she wrote a [D]note and disap[A]peared [E]
[C]He [G]read the words she [D]wrote and shed a [A]tear
for Made[C]line [G] [D] 

[Gsus2]And he cried-

[G]I'll [C]wait for [G]you 'til the end of [D]time, Made[G]line
[C]Please won't [G]you just give me a [D]sign, Made[G]line
[C]Let me [G]know if you're still [D]mine, Made[C]line [G] [D]

[E] [C]He never [G]understood just [D]why she had to [A]go [E]
[C]What did he [G]do to make her [D]want to hurt him [A]so [E]
[C]He could fill an [G]ocean with the [D]things he didn't [A]know
about Made[C]line [G] [D]

[Gsus2]And he cried-

[G]I'll [C]wait for [G]you 'til the end of [D]time, Made[G]line
[C]Please won't [G]you just give me a [D]sign, Made[G]line
[C]Let me [G]know if you're still [D]mine, Made[C]line [G] [D] [Dsus2] [E7sus4] 

[A]The love that you give a[E6]way
Comes back to you some[Em6]day
So have the faith to [D]say what's [F]on [E]your [A]mind

Take care in the things you [E6]do
It'll all come back to [Em6]you
If you see it [D]through it'll [F]be [E]all [Am]right

Fall on your knees and [C]pray
That she'll come back some [F]day
And you might hear her [C]say she'll [E7]stay this [Am]time

She's the one for [C]you
You tell yourself it's [F]true
And try to hold on [C]to that [E7]lonely [Am]lie

It always ends the [C]same
There's no-one left to [F]blame
So you call her [C]name
Oh [E7]Made[F]line [C] 
[F]Ah, [C]oh [E7]Made[A]ine [Esus4] [A]

[E] [C] [G] [D] [A] 

[E] [C]He [G]left his home in [D]search of another [A]way [E]
[C]To find the [G]girl who long a[D]go had gone a[A]stray [E]
[C]Then [G]one day to his [D]house a letter [A]came
from Made[C]line [G] [D]

[Gsus2]And it read-

[G]"I'll [C]be home [G]soon on the number [D]nine, love of [G]mine. 
[C]You have [G]always been on my [D]mind. I hope we're [G]fine. 
[C]See you [G]soon. I love you. [D]Signed, Made[C]line." [G] [D]

[Gsus2]And he cried-

[G]I'll [C]wait for [G]you 'til the end of [D]time, Made[G]line
[C]Please won't [G]you just give me a [D]sign, Made[G]line
[C]Let me [G]know if you're still [D]mine, Made[C]line [G] [D] 

My Made[C]line [G] [D]
My Made[C]line [G] [D]
My Made[C]line [G] [D] [E] [C] [G] [D]
