Alternative, maybe easier, version:
  • Transpose the chords 4 half steps down [ -4 ]
  • Put a capo on fret 4 to stay in the same key

Dbm                      E           
I used to know you when you were young
A                  E     Ab
You were in all my dreams 
Dbm                 E
We sat together in period one
A                   E   Ab
Fridays at eight-fifteen
Dbm                         E  
Now I see your face in the strangest places
A              E    Ab
Movies and magazines
Dbm                   E
I saw you talking to Christopher Walken
A        E                
On my TV screen


    A               E
But I will wait for you
   A                Abm  B
As long as I need to
           Dbm               E
And if you ever get back to Hackensack
A                E
I'll be here for you


Dbm                  E          
I used to work in a record store
A                 E  Ab
Now I work for my dad
Dbm                        E
Scraping the paint of the hardwood floors
A                    E  Ab
The hours are pretty bad
Dbm                       E  
Sometimes I wonder where you are now
A            E Ab
Probably in la
Dbm                     E
That seems to be where everybody 
A                  E                
Else ends up these days


    A               E
And I will wait for you
   A                Abm  B
As long as I need to
           Dbm               E
And if you ever get back to Hackensack
A                E
I'll be here for you
