               G              D        C    Cadd9
Well I'm just waiting for my chance to come
        G     D                C      D*
Just a silhouette against the rising sun
          Em7              Dsus4/F#
Watch the water, watch the sky
           G              Asus4
Count the days as they go by
         C               D*        G
I'm just waiting for my chance to come

          G          D         C    Cadd9
Well it takes real guts to be alone
         G     D             C      D*
Going head to head with the great unknown
          Em7           Dsus4/F#       G             Asus4
But there is no sweeter sound, on the king's road I'm bound
          C                D*        G
And just waiting for your chance to come

             Em            G                 D*               C
'Cause it's hard to feel like, you're worth something in this life
             Em             G          D*            C
When you're walking next to me, I can hear my body speak
             C              D*       G
We're just waiting for a chance to come
             C              D*       G
We're just waiting for a chance to come
