WAITING IN VAIN
by Bob Marley

[Intro]
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 x2

Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

[Verse]
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
My heart says follow through.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
But the waitin' feel is fine.

Gmaj7 Cmaj7
So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Cos I know how to do my thing.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb,
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I wanna know when you're gonna come. See

[Chorus]
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love, cause if

[Bridge]
C D Bm7 Am7
Summer is here, I'm still waiting there.

(G string riff: (6~~8), D: 8)

C D Bm7 Am7
Winter is here, and I'm still waiting there.

Like I said

[Verse 2]
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door,
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
And I still can knock some more.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible, (I wanna know now),
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
For I to knock some more?
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Ya see, in life I know there's lots of grief,
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
But your love is my re-lief.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Tears in my eyes burn, tears in my eyes burn,
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn. U'See...

[Chorus]
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,

[Outro]
Gmaj7
I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain.
Gmaj7
No, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain.
Gmaj7
No, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain.
Gmaj7
No, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
Cmaj7
I don't wanna wait in vain.
Gmaj7
It's your love that I'm waiting on,
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
I don't wanna wait in vain).
Cmaj7
It's my love that you're running from.
Gmaj7
It's jah love that I'm waiting on,
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
I don't wanna wait in vain).
Cmaj7
It's me love that you're running from.
