D7M                 G7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
D7M                 G7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

D7M                      G7M
 From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl
D7M                G7M
 My heart says follow through
D7M                     G7M
 But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line
D7M                   G7M
 But the waitin' feel is fine

D7M                    G7M
 So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
D7M                    G7M
 'Cos I know how to do my thing
D7M               G7M
 Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
D7M                          G7M
 I wanna know when you're gonna come. See

(Like I said)

D7M                           G7M
 It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door
D7M                      G7M
 And I still can knock some more
D7M               G7M
 Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible, (I wanna know now)
D7M               G7M
 For I to knock some more? Yah see

D7M           G7M
 In life, I know, there's lots of grief
D7M                  G7M
 But your love is my re-lief
D7M                  G7M
 Tears in my eyes burn, tears in my eyes burn
          D7M                            G7M
While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn. See
