 G        Em             C7M 
   In the autumn on the ground 
 G              Em             C7M 
   Between the traffic and the ordinary sounds 
 G       Em                C7M 
   I am thinking signs and seasons 
                 G           Em   C7M 
While a north wind blows through 


 G             Em               C7M    C
   I watch as lovers pass me by 
 G          Em        C7M                   C
   Walking stories, who's and how's and why's 
 G        Em        C7M 
   Musing lazily on love
           G   Em  C7M 
Pondering you 


             Am7
I'll give it time, give it space 
         D
And be still for a spell 
          Am7
When it's time to walk that way 
          C       D
We wanna walk it well 


               G              Em      C7M 
      I'll be waiting for you baby 
               G               Em      C7M 
      I'll be holding back the darkest night 
               G           Em          C7M 
      Love is waiting till we're ready 
                 G        Em    ( C9)
      Till it's right 
      C9
      Love is waiting...


 G         Em              C7M 
   It's my caution not the cold 
 G            Em             C7M 
   There's no other hand that I would rather hold 
 G              Em                 C7M 
   The climate changes I'm singing for strangers
       G    Em   C7M 
About you 
           Am7
Don't keep time, slow the pace 
       D
Honey hold on if you can 
             Am7
The bets are getting surer now 
      D
That you're my man 


               G              Em      C7M 
      I'll be waiting for you baby 
               G               Em      C7M 
      I'll be holding back the darkest night 
               G           Em          C7M 
      Love is waiting till we're ready 
                 G        Em    C9
      Till it's right 


         Am7            Em               D              G
I could write a million songs about the way you say my name 
        Am7             Em                 D          G
I could live a lifetime with you and then do it all again 
        Am7                Em              D                G
And like I can't force the sun to rise or hasten summer's start 
           F              C             D
Neither should I rush my way into your heart


               G ...
      I'll be waiting for you baby 
               G ...
      I'll be holding back the darkest night 
               G           Em          C7M 
      Love is waiting till we're ready 
                 G        Em    C9
      Till it's right 


               G              Em      C7M 
      I'll be waiting for you baby 
               G               Em      C7M 
      I'll be holding back the darkest night 
               G           Em          C7M 
      Love is waiting till we're ready 
                 G        Em
      Till it's right 
      C9
      Love is waiting...
