Intro: D G A D(Or D with variations:  D Dsus2 Dsus4 A)
 
D           G         A              D
One day I looked up and there you were
D             G         A                D
Like a simple question looking for an answer
D             G             A            D
Now I am a whale listening to some inner call
D            G               A            D
Swimming blindly to throw myself upon your shores
 
(The same progression for this)
But what if I don't find when I have landed
Would you leave me here to die on your shores stranded?
 
I think I know why the dog howls at the moon.
I think I know why the dog howls at the moon.
 
      D    G D   A        D  G
I say:\"Dela! Dela! Ngiyadela!
(Content, content I am content)
D                 A
When I am with you!
D   G D       A
Dela! Sondela mama!
D     G
sondela                             D        A
(Closer, closer, come closer mama)I burn for you!
 
Chorus:
 
D                    G                   A                  D
I've been waiting for you all my life -- hoping for a miracle
D                    G          A            D
I've been waiting day and night, day and night
D                    G                   A                   D
I've been waiting for you all my life -- waiting for redemption
D                    G
I've been waiting day and night
A             D
I burn for you
 
Intro Again.
 
A blind bird sings inside the cage that is my heart
And the image of your face comes to me when I'm alone in the dark
If I could give a shape to this ache that I have for you
If I could find the voice that says the words that capture you
 
I think I know, I think I know....
I think I know why the dog howls at the moon.
I say:\"Dela! Dela! Ngiyadela!
(Content, content I am content)
When I am with you!
Dela! Sondela mama!
(Closer, closer, come closer mama)
I burn for you!
