Bb7M                 Eb7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
Bb7M                 Eb7M
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

Bb7M                      Eb7M
 From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl
Bb7M                Eb7M
 My heart says follow through
Bb7M                     Eb7M
 But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line
Bb7M                   Eb7M
 But the waitin' feel is fine

Bb7M                    Eb7M
 So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
Bb7M                    Eb7M
 'Cos I know how to do my thing
Bb7M               Eb7M
 Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
Bb7M                          Eb7M
 I wanna know when you're gonna come. See

(Like I said)

Bb7M                           Eb7M
 It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door
Bb7M                      Eb7M
 And I still can knock some more
Bb7M               Eb7M
 Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible, (I wanna know now)
Bb7M               Eb7M
 For I to knock some more? Yah see

Bb7M           Eb7M
 In life, I know, there's lots of grief
Bb7M                  Eb7M
 But your love is my re-lief
Bb7M                  Eb7M
 Tears in my eyes burn, tears in my eyes burn
          Bb7M                            Eb7M
While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn. See
