Waiting in the weeds   by  The Eagles

Capot : fret 1
G                           Em         
It's comin' on the end of August  
G                               Em
Another summer's promise almost gone
              C                                                   
And though I heard some wise man say  
            G
That every dog will have his day
    F                                         Am    D
He never mentioned that these dog days get so long
G                           Em     G  
I don't know when I realized the dream was over  
                 Em
Well, there was no particular hour, no given day
               C                                                            
You know, it didn't go down in flame  
               G 
There was no final scene, no frozen frame
F                              Am    D
I just watched it slowly fade away

   Em                         G                                 
And I've been waiting in the weeds  
               Am             C
Waiting for my time to come around again and
Em                         G                             
Hope is floating on the breeze  
             Am            C
Carrying my soul high up above the ground and
Em                     G                              
I've been keepin' to myself  Knowin' 
            Am         C
that the seasons are slowly changing
Em                                G     
Even though you're with somebody else  
                      Am            C
He'll never love you like I do

G                                         Em         
I've been biding time with the crows and sparrows  
G                                         Em
While peacocks prance and strut upon the stage 
             C                      G     
If finding love is just a dance  Proximity and chance
           F                        Am             D
You will excuse me if I skip the masquerade

Em                             G                                  
And I've been waiting in the weeds  
                 Am            C
Waiting for the dust to settle down along the
Em                               G                               
Back roads running through the fields  
                Am                C
Lying on the outskirts of this lonesome town
Em                              G            
And I imagine sunlight in your hair  
                      Am           
You're at the county fair  
                  C
You're holding hands and laughing
Em                              G                                           
And now the ferris wheel has stopped  
                       Bm                     
You're swinging on the top  
            F#
Suspended there with him
G                            D                                
And he's the darling of the sheik  
                   Bm       F#
The flavor of the week is melting
G                        D                               
Down your pretty summer dress  
               F#
Baby, what a mess you're making

Solo:    Bm   A#5+    D   A#5+   

Bm                               A#5+                
I've been stumbling through some dark places        
D                     A#5+
Now I'm following the plow
Bm                             A#5+              
I know I've fallen out of your good graces  
Am            D
It's alright now
Em                            G                                   
And I've been waiting in the weeds  
                  Am           C
Waiting for the summer rain to fall upon the
Em                            G 
Wild birds scattering the seeds  
                  Am           C
Answering the calling of the tide's eternal tune
Em                 G 
The phases of the moon  
                  Am           
The chambers of the heart
             C
The ebb and dart of small gray  
  Em                     G                
Spiders spinning in the dark
                      Am                    C
In spite of all the times the web is torn apart
   Em                        G       
And I've been waiting in the weeds  
                 Am           C
Waiting for the time to come around again and
  Em                      G                 
Hope is floating on the breeze  
Am                         C
Carrying my soul high up above the ground and
  Em                   G                 
I've been keepinl to myself  
  Am                            C 
Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing
  Em                       G                 
Even though you're with somebody else  
 Am                         G 
He'll never love you like I do

Em    G    Am       C
