Wait So Long Chords
by Trampled By Turtles

Chords : F   C   G   Am
for the whole song. Chords carry over to next line (which is why it starts with Am)
Strumming sounds good with up/down continuously pretty fast.


(Am)          F                    C
I could never pretend that i don't love you
                G                     Am
you could never pretend that i'm your man
                   F          C
that's exactly the way that i want it
                   G          Am
that's exactly the way that i am

                       F                C
And you call me in the mornin with your troubles
         G              Am
takin it downtown every night
                        F               C
i could never place the stars at night above ya
                    G                       Am
got my hands on the ground and you know i'm right


Chorus:
(Am)         F     C
You wait so long
             G     Am
You wait so long
             F     C
You wait so long
             G     Am
You wait so long


It's a coffee stained earth every time it happens
laugh it up honey it ain't that bad
and the afterthought rose to recognition
like every other coffin that i had

Then your Buick broke down in Winamuck
you fall to your knees and you pray to the lord
then you take a poke at the politicians
nothing happens in this burnt out town anymore

you wait so long (x4)

And your heart rolls on like a frozen freight train
you know that I'd help you if i can
but i'm just a raindrop in a river
just a little itty bitty grain of sand

And you know that i'm doomed to repeat this
with all the bad habits that i learned
but its better than your fire burnt fornication *
and all the dirty money that you earned

you wait so long (x4)
you wait so long (x4)

* Not sure about this one. Some guy said he talked to them and it's the first, but seen 
the second around too. Both sound ok :)

but its better than your FIRE BURNT fornication
but its better than your FINE EARNED fornication
