D             F#                  Bm
Somewhere, a lonely girl lies weeping
Em                              D
A lonely man tries sleeping
Em                              F#
But he's getting nowhere...
 
   D              F#              Bm
Sometime, it may be close to morning,
Em                                              D
She thought she heard him calling,
Em                               F#
But there´s nobody there...
 
         G                  E                          A              A7          A
And somehow, somehow, he knows he´s got to try to
          D Fm#              Em                                    A
Hold on, there´s someone out there crying for him
Hold on, some day her smile will call him
Hold on, there´s someone out there trying for him
G                            Em     A       D
Somehow, sometime, somewhere...
 
D                      F#                          Hm
Somewhere, again she sleeps alone,
Em                                  D
He´s reaching for the `phone
Em                              F#
But he´s calling no-one...
 
        D                          F#                          Hm
Oh sometime, she´s dreaming of her lover,
Em                          D
It really can´t be over
Em                            F#
We´ve only just begun...

And somehow, somehow, I know I´ve got to try to
            D Fm#      Em                           A
Hold on, somewhere she´s crying for me,
Hold on, someday her smile will call me,
Hold on, there´s someone out there crying for me,
G                             E                D           Fm# Em A
Somehow, sometime, somewhere, ah, ah...
            D Fm# Em A              D Fm# Em A7-9
Hold on___________, hold on,
          G                  E                 D
Somehow, sometime, somewhere
