Intro:

Gmaj7  Cmaj7  (x8)

Verse 1:

Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
Gmaj7                       Cmaj7
 From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
Gmaj7                 Cmaj7
 My heart says follow t'rough.
Gmaj7                      Cmaj7
 But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
Gmaj7                    Cmaj7
 But the waitin' feel is fine:
Gmaj7                     Cmaj7
 So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
Gmaj7                          Cmaj7
 'Cause I know I have to do my thing.
Gmaj7                Cmaj7
 Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb;
Gmaj7                           Cmaj7
 I wanna know when you're gonna come — soon.

Chorus 1:

Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,
Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.

Bridge 1:

          C         Bm7
'Cause if summer is here,
Am7
 I'm still waiting there;
C          Bm7
 Winter is here,
    Am7               D7
And I'm still waiting there.

Verse 2:

(Guitar Solo)

Gmaj7  Cmaj7

(Like I said):

Verse 3:

Gmaj7                            Cmaj7
 It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door,
Gmaj7                       Cmaj7
 And I still can knock some more:
Gmaj7                Cmaj7
 Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible? (I wanna know now)
Gmaj7                Cmaj7
 For I to knock some more.
        Gmaj7          Cmaj7
Ya see, in life I know there's lots of grief,
Gmaj7                   Cmaj7
 But your love is my re—lief:
Gmaj7                    Cmaj7
 Tears in my eyes burn — tears in my eyes burn
          Gmaj7                              Cmaj7
While I'm waiting — while I'm waiting for my turn,
See!...

Chorus 2:

Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,
Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
Gmaj7                  Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain for your love. oh!
Gmaj7
 I don't wanna — I don't wanna — I don't wanna — I don't wanna —
Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain.
Gmaj7
 I don't wanna — I don't wanna — I don't wanna — I don't wanna —
Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain.
Gmaj7
 I don't wanna — I don't wanna — I don't wanna — I don't wanna —
Cmaj7
 I don't wanna wait in vain.
          Gmaj7
It's your love that I'm waiting on (I don't wanna — I don't wanna —
I don't wanna — I don't wanna — I don't wanna wait in vain);
        Cmaj7
It's me love that you're running from.
         Gmaj7
It's jah love that I'm waiting on (I don't wanna — I don't wanna —
I don't wanna — I don't wanna — I don't wanna wait in vain);
        Cmaj7
It's me love that you're running from.

(Repeat to Fade)
