Do7M                 Fa7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
Do7M                 Fa7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

Do7M                      Fa7M
 From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl
Do7M                Fa7M
 My heart says follow through
Do7M                     Fa7M
 But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line
Do7M                   Fa7M
 But the waitin' feel is fine

Do7M                    Fa7M
 So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
Do7M                    Fa7M
 'Cos I know how to do my thing
Do7M               Fa7M
 Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
Do7M                          Fa7M
 I wanna know when you're gonna come. See

(Like I said)

Do7M                           Fa7M
 It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door
Do7M                      Fa7M
 And I still can knock some more
Do7M               Fa7M
 Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible, (I wanna know now)
Do7M               Fa7M
 For I to knock some more? Yah see

Do7M           Fa7M
 In life, I know, there's lots of grief
Do7M                  Fa7M
 But your love is my re-lief
Do7M                  Fa7M
 Tears in my eyes burn, tears in my eyes burn
          Do7M                            Fa7M
While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn. See
