Fa#7M                 Si7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
Fa#7M                 Si7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

Fa#7M                      Si7M
 From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl
Fa#7M                Si7M
 My heart says follow through
Fa#7M                     Si7M
 But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line
Fa#7M                   Si7M
 But the waitin' feel is fine

Fa#7M                    Si7M
 So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
Fa#7M                    Si7M
 'Cos I know how to do my thing
Fa#7M               Si7M
 Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
Fa#7M                          Si7M
 I wanna know when you're gonna come. See

(Like I said)

Fa#7M                           Si7M
 It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door
Fa#7M                      Si7M
 And I still can knock some more
Fa#7M               Si7M
 Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible, (I wanna know now)
Fa#7M               Si7M
 For I to knock some more? Yah see

Fa#7M           Si7M
 In life, I know, there's lots of grief
Fa#7M                  Si7M
 But your love is my re-lief
Fa#7M                  Si7M
 Tears in my eyes burn, tears in my eyes burn
          Fa#7M                            Si7M
While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn. See
