Biography:
Richard Clare "Rick" Danko (December 29 1943 - December 10, 1999) (his birthdate is often mistakenly listed as 1942) was a musician and singer from Green's Corners, near Simcoe, Ontario, probably best known as the bass player and one of three lead singers of The Band.
At the age of 14 (1957) Danko booked himself as an opening act for ronnie hawkins, & his band The Hawks. Hawkins asked Danko to join his band as a rythym guitarist, though later he would have Danko learn the bass, and by 1960 was Hawkins' bassist.

Tired of Waiting
Rick Danko
Intro: Dm
Dm Am
I have wondered, I have worried
Bb Dm
And I've walked a complicated line
Dm Am
I have hungered, I have hurried
Bb Dm
And I've almost lost my mind
Dm Am
Feelin happiness, does not have to be
Bb Dm
A smile of regret, that's left from behind
C F
Had no choice, and could not speak a word
Bb
But the picture is fading, and I'm tired of waiting ...
Dm Am
There'll be faces at the doorway
Bb Dm
Torn between the right and the wrong
Dm Am
And the road I have followed
Bb Dm
Left me to sing an older man's song
C F
Had no choice, and could not speak a word
Bb
But the picture is fading, and I'm tired of waiting ...
I'm tired of waiting ...
