[Chorus 1]
(same rhythm)
Emaj7
I don't wanna wait,
Amaj7
In vain for your love.
Emaj7
I don't wanna wait,
Amaj7
In vain for your love.
[Verse 1]
Emaj7
From the very first time,
Amaj7
I rest my eyes on you, girl,
Emaj7 Amaj7
My heart says follow t'rough.
Emaj7
But I know, now, that I'm,
Amaj7
Way down on your line,
Emaj7 Amaj7
But the waitin' feel is fine.
Emaj7
So don't treat me,
Amaj7
Like a puppet on a string,
Emaj7 Amaj7
'Cos I know how to do my thing.
Emaj7
Don't talk to me,
Amaj7
As if you think I'm dumb,
Emaj7
I wanna know,
Amaj7
When you're gonna come... soon.
[Chorus 2]
Emaj7
I don't wanna wait,
Amaj7
In vain for your love.
Emaj7
I don't wanna wait,
Amaj7
In vain for your love.
Emaj7
I don't wanna wait,
Amaj7
In vain for your love.
[Bridge 1]
A B
'Cos if summer is here,
G#m7 F#m7
I'm still waiting there.
A B
Winter is here,
G#m7 F#m7
And I'm still waiting there.

[Verse 3]
...Amaj7
(Like I said)...
Emaj7
It's been three years,
Amaj7
Since I'm knockin' on your door,
Emaj7 Amaj7
And I still can knock some more.

Emaj7
Ooh girl, ooh girl,
Amaj7
Is it feasible?...
(I wanna know now)
Emaj7 Amaj7
For I to knock some more?...
Emaj7
Yah see, in life,
Amaj7
I know there's lots of grief,
Emaj7 Amaj7
But your love is my relief.
Emaj7
Tears in my eyes burn,
Amaj7
Tears in my eyes burn,
Emaj7
While I'm waiting,
Amaj7
While I'm waiting for my turn.
See...
[Chorus 2]
Emaj7
I don't wanna wait,

In vain for your love.

In vain for your love.

I don't wanna wait,
Amaj7
In vain for your love.

In vain for your love.
