E  Am, G/B

Verse 1:

F           C
 I remember when,
      Dm                C
I was five and you were ten, boy,
    F               C
You knew that I was shy,
       Am                 E
So you teased and made me cry.

E      Am    G/B
 But I loved you...

Verse 2:

F                 C
 Then one day you came,
    Dm               C
You told me you were leaving,
    F                   C
You gave your folks the blame,
    Am            E
And made me cry a-gain.

E     Am  G/B
 When you said...

Chorus 1:

C
 Little girl,
            Fmaj7
Please dont wait for me,
     C             Am
Wait patiently for love,
     Dm              G7
Some-day will surely come.

C
 Little girl,
            Fmaj7
Please dont wait for me,
     C             Am
Wait patiently for love,
     Dm              G7
Some-day will surely come.

    E         Am   G/B
And I'm still wait-ing.

Interlude:

C  Am, C
        I'm waiting,
Am  F           C
     Ooh, still waiting.

Bridge 1:

F            C
 (I'm just a fool,
Dm          Am
 I'm just a fool to keep waiting),
F            C
 (I'm just a fool,
Am          E
 I'm just a fool).

F            C
 (I'm just a fool,
Dm          Am
 I'm just a fool to keep waiting),
F            C
 (I'm just a fool,
Am          E
 I'm just a fool).

Interlude:

E  Am, G/B

Verse 3:

     F               C  
Then someone finally came;
   Dm              C
He told me that he loved me,
  F                C
I put him off with lies,
         Am           E
He could see I had no eyes.

E      Am   G/B
 So he left me...

Verse 4:

F             C
 Once again a-lone,
       Dm
Like a child,
            C
Without her playmate,
  F               C
I had to face the truth,
      Am                 E
I was still in love with you.

E    Am  G/B
 But you said...

Chorus 2:

C
 Little girl,
            Fmaj7
Please dont wait for me,
     C             Am
Wait patiently for love,
     Dm              G7
Some-day will surely come.

C
 Little girl,
            Fmaj7
Please dont wait for me,
     C             Am
Wait patiently for love,
     Dm              G7
Some-day will surely come.

    E         Am   G/B
And I'm still wait-ing.

Break:

C         Am
 Love has never shown his face,
C
 Since the day you,
Walked out that door.
Em             F
 You filled my life with empty space,
C
 Come back;
Can't you see it's you I'm waiting for?
