[Verse 1]
G D6 D
I was only waiting, took me time I was waiting
C7 F
While the day went slowly round the bend
G G7 C {C B A}
Could it be another sad song, coming to an end?
[Verse 2]
G D6 D
Crying, every day she was crying
C7 F
But I'll make amends to her one day
G G7 C ~ ~
I'll just turn around and say, that's the only way
[Chorus]
~ F G7
And it's, oh, so saddening, it's almost maddening
C ~ Am G D
I didn't ask for much, just a touch
N.C.
But it didn't come to much and I was left here on my own, just ..
[Verse 3]
G D6 D
Waiting, took up my time, it was frustrating
C7 F
Could it be a love story going wrong
G G7 C ~ ~
Making up another sad song for her ears
[Chorus]
~ F G7
And it's, oh, so saddening, it's almost maddening
C ~ Am G D
I didn't ask for much, just a touch
N.C.
And I was only ...
[Verse 4]
G D6 D
Waiting, took me time, I was waiting
C7 F
Could it be a love story going wrong
