The Byrds   Get To You    written by  Roger McGuinn

D        G      D       G    D       G      D     G
Standing in the airport I am waiting for a plane
D     G       D      G       D       G     D     G
Going east to London want to be back there again
         D             A             D         D/F#   Em
It's the right time of year all the leaves are on the ground
      D      G    D       G   G/F#  Em   A
But I really only want to get to    you
D       G       D     G        D     G      D   G
Sitting by the window watching ocean going by
D       G          D       G       D        G         D   G
Soon I should be with you but how fast can this thing fly
D         A         D   D/F# Em
Day hours seem like an  eternity
        D       G       D         G  G/F#  Em   A
All the time it took me trying to get to   you
Em               A      Em              A
That's a little better that's a  little better
Em               A
That's a little better
D        G      D       G     D      G     D      G
Standing in the airport I am getting off a plane
D       G      D     G    D           G       D    G
Glad to be in London even though it's pouring rain
D                   A          D              Em
It's a bright sunny day when I see you run my way
       D       G      D        G  G/F# Em   A
But it took me twenty years to get to  you
       D            A          D              Em
It's a bright sunny day when I see you run my way
       D       G      D        G   G/F#  Em  A
But it took me twenty years to get to    you
Em               A      Em              A
That's a little better that's a  little better
Em               A
That's a little better

The Byrds   Wait And See    written by David Crosby

G                  D   C               A
Watch put what you say don't get in my way
G         F        C             D
I'm gonna get that girl wait and see
G         D      C              A
I saw her today  she came by my way
G         F       C             D
I'm gonna win her love wait and see
    G                 C              G                   C
And together we'll go walking in the evening there'll be talking
          G       G/F#     Em           D
She's the kind of girl you never hardly see
G                 D     C         A
Have you seen her eyes  do you realize
G        F         C                 D
How much love like that can  mean to me
G                D  C             A
I know she knows me today I could see
    G       F        C                    D
The way she held her head when she walked by
    G                   C      G               C
And before the night is over I think I'm gonna love her
    G    G/F#     Em            D
And if it lasts forever I don't care
G               D      C                A
Now that she is mine I told you all the time
    G       F     C                 D
How could I let a girl like that go by
       G                C      G               C
And before the night is over I think I'm gonna love her
    G    G/F#       Em          D
And if it lasts forever I don't care
