    C
The next in line will be someone who loves you 
    C
The next in line is me, 'cause it's my time 
    F                             C
Now how long will it be, till you end my misery 
D                                 G 
You better be prepared to linger, when you get to me 

    C
The time has come for you to love me, if you ever are 
C
Come to me now, so I can make you mine 
  F                                 C
I watched them rush to you so fast, I waited so I'd be the last 
D                    G               C     D 
It's my time, 'cause I'm the next in line 

Solo (in D)

    D
The next in line will want your love forever 
    D
The next in line is me and here I am 
     G                   D 
Give me a day or two and I'll get through to you 
      E7                              A    
You'd been my baby long ago, if you'd turned down a few 

D 
This old heart can't take much more waitin' for your love 
    D
I'm tired and we're runnin' short of time 
     G                          D        
I'll make you love me more than everyone before 
        G                   A               D
It's my time to try, 'cause I'm the next in line 

  E
I stood and watched you take their hearts and break 'em one by one 
   E
My time is comin', so I waited while you had your fun 
A                               E
Now I'm through a-waitin' way behind 
F#                   B               E
It's my time, 'cause I'm the next in line
