Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                Cmaj7 (x32000@1)I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                Cmaj7 (x32000@1)I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                     Cmaj7 (x32000@1)From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)               Cmaj7 (x32000@1)My heart says follow t'rough.
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                    Cmaj7 (x32000@1)But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                  Cmaj7 (x32000@1)But the waitin' feel is fine:
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                   Cmaj7 (x32000@1)So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                        Cmaj7 (x32000@1)'Cause I know I have to do my thing.
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)              Cmaj7 (x32000@1)Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb;
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                         Cmaj7 (x32000@1)I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.

Chorus 1:

Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                Cmaj7 (x32000@1)I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,
Gmaj7 (xx5432@1)                Cmaj7 (x32000@1)I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
