Key: :[Am] (w: Jack Johnson)
INTRO: [Am] [Am7] [G] [G7] [F] [F7] [C] [C7]
VERSE 1:
Well
[Am] I was sitting,
[Am7] waiting, wishing
[G] You believed in
[G7] superstitions
[F] Then maybe you'd
[F7] see the
[C] signs
[C7]
VERSE 2:
The
[Am] Lord knows that this
[Am7] world is cruel
And I
[G] ain't the Lord, no I'm
[G7] just a fool
And in
[F] love with somebody
[F7] don't make them
[C] love you
[C7]
CHORUS:
Must I
[E] al-
[E7]-ways be
[E] wait-
[E7]-ing
Waiting on
[Am] you
[Am7] [Am] [Am7]
Must I
[E] al-
[E7]-ways be
[E] play-
[E7]-ing
Playing your
[Am] fool
[Am7] [Am] [Am7]
VERSE 3:
I
[Am] sang your songs; I
[Am7] danced your dance
I
[G] gave your friends
[G7] all a chance
[F] Putting up with them
[F7] wasn't worth ever having
[C] you
[C7]
VERSE 4:
Ah
[Am] maybe you've been through
[Am7] this before
But it's
[G] my first time so
[G7] please ignore
These
[F] next few lines because
[F7] they're directed at
[C] you
[C7]
REPEAT CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
I keep
[C] playing your
[E] part, but its not my
[F] scene
Want this plot to
[G] twist, I've had
[F] enough mystery
[C]
You keep building it
[E] up, then keep shooting me
[F] down
But I'm already
[G] down
INTERLUDE:
Just wait a min-
[Am]-ute
[Am7]
[G] Just
[G7] sitting, wait-
[F]-ing
[F7]
[C] [C7] Just wait a min-
[Am]-ute
[Am7]
[G] Just
[G7] sitting, wait-
[F]-ing
[F7] [C] [C7]
VERSE 5:
Well
[Am] if I was in
[Am7] your position
I'd
[G] put down all my
[G7] ammunition
I'd
[F] wonder why it had
[F7] taken me so
[C] long
[C7]
VERSE 6:
But the
[Am] lord knows that
[Am7] I'm not you
And
[G] if I was, I wouldn't
[G7] be so cruel
Cause
[F] waiting on love ain't
[F7] so easy to
[C] do
[C7]
REPEAT CHORUS:
OUTRO:
No I can't
[E] al-
[E7]-ways be
[E] wait-
[E7]-ing
Waiting on
[Am] you
[Am7] [Am] [Am7]
I can't
[E] always
[E7] be
[E] playing
[E7]
Playing your fool
[Am] [Am7],
[E] fool
[E7] Mmm.. mmm
[Am open]
