Intro: [x][x][Am][Am7][G][G7][F][F7][C][C7]



1st verse:
Am             Am7              G               G7
I was sitting, waiting, wishing you believed in superstitions
F                F7       C     C7
Then maybe you’d see the signs
    Am                   Am7                  G                    G7
But lord knows that this world is cruel and I ain’t the lord no im just a fool
         F               F7              C          C7
Learning loving somebody don’t make them love you



Chorus:
       E  E      E        E          Am     Am7  Am  Am7       
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?    
       E    E    E        E            Am    Am7  Am   Am7
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?



2nd verse:
  Am                 Am7                  G                 G7
I sang your songs, I danced your dance, I gave your friends all a chance
F                    F7                 C           C7
Putting up with them wasn’t worth never having you
   Am                        Am7                  G                   G7
Oh maybe you’ve been through this before but it’s my first time some please ignore
     F                   F7                C          C7
The next few lines cause they’re directed at you




Chorus:
        E  E      E        E          Am     Am7  Am  Am7       
I can’t always be waiting, waiting on you?    
        E    E    E        E            Am    Am7  Am   Am7
I can’t always be playing, playing your fool?



Bridge:
C        C           E        E            F
 I keep playing your part but it’s not my scene
     F              G              F      
Want this plot to twist I’ve had enough mystery
C         C            E               E           F
 You keep building it up but then keep shooting me down
        F        G        G        (Am)
But I’m already down just wait a minute       
Am Am7 G     G7          F     F7                                
        Just sitting, waiting 
C     C7        Am  Am7  G      G7        F    F7  C   C7
 Just wait a minute,      Just sitting waiting   



3rd verse:
     Am          Am7               G               G7
Well if I was in your position I’d put down all my ammunition
    F                 F7          C     C7
I’d wonder why it had taken me so long
    Am               Am7           G                   G7
But lord knows that im not you and if I was I wouldn’t be so cruel
      F                     F7         C     C7
Cause waiting on love ain’t so easy to do



Chorus:
       E  E      E        E          Am     Am7  Am  Am7       
Must I always be waiting, waiting on you?    
       E    E    E        E            Am    Am7  Am   Am7
Must I always be playing, playing your fool?
           E  E      E        E          Am     Am7  Am  Am7       
No I can’t always be waiting, waiting on you?    
        E    E    E        E            Am    Am7  Am   Am7  Am>let ring
I can’t always be playing, playing your fool?      Fool
