[Refrão]

Fa7M                 Sib7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
Fa7M                 Sib7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

Fa7M                      Sib7M
 From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl
Fa7M                Sib7M
 My heart says follow through
Fa7M                     Sib7M
 But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line
Fa7M                   Sib7M
 But the waitin' feel is fine

Fa7M                    Sib7M
 So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
Fa7M                    Sib7M
 'Cos I know how to do my thing
Fa7M               Sib7M
 Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
Fa7M                          Sib7M
 I wanna know when you're gonna come. See

[Ponte]

        Sib        Do    Lam7               Solm7
'Cos if summer is here, I'm still waiting there
Sib         Do        Lam7               Solm7
 Winter is here, and I'm still waiting there

(Like I said)

Fa7M                           Sib7M
 It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door
Fa7M                      Sib7M
 And I still can knock some more
Fa7M               Sib7M
 Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible, (I wanna know now)
Fa7M               Sib7M
 For I to knock some more? Yah see

Fa7M           Sib7M
 In life, I know, there's lots of grief
Fa7M                  Sib7M
 But your love is my re-lief
Fa7M                  Sib7M
 Tears in my eyes burn, tears in my eyes burn
          Fa7M                            Sib7M
While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn. See
