B7M                 E7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
B7M                 E7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

B7M                      E7M
 From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl
B7M                E7M
 My heart says follow through
B7M                     E7M
 But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line
B7M                   E7M
 But the waitin' feel is fine

B7M                    E7M
 So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
B7M                    E7M
 'Cos I know how to do my thing
B7M               E7M
 Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
B7M                          E7M
 I wanna know when you're gonna come. See

(Like I said)

B7M                           E7M
 It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door
B7M                      E7M
 And I still can knock some more
B7M               E7M
 Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible, (I wanna know now)
B7M               E7M
 For I to knock some more? Yah see

B7M           E7M
 In life, I know, there's lots of grief
B7M                  E7M
 But your love is my re-lief
B7M                  E7M
 Tears in my eyes burn, tears in my eyes burn
          B7M                            E7M
While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn. See
