But t[C]he waiting feel is [G]fine
So do[C]n’t treat me like a[G] puppet on a string
Cause[C] I know I could do m[G]y thing
Don’t[C] talk to me as if you[G] think I’m dumb
I wan[C]na know when you’re g[G]onna come....see

Verse 2:
Like I said...[C]It’s been 3 years since I’m [G]knocking on your door
[C]And I still can knock some[G] more

[C]For I to knock some[G] more
Ya see, [C]in life I know the[G]re’s lots of grief
[C]But your love is my [G]relief
Tears [C]in my eyes burn, tears [G]in my eyes burn
While [C]I’m waiting, while I’m [G]waiting for my turn

I don[C]’t wanna wait in vain[G] for your love
I don[C]’t wanna wait in vain[G] for your love

I don[C]’t wanna wait in vain[G] for your love
I don[C]’t wanna wait in vain[G] for your love, oh
