2nd traste
[Verse]
C
I used to sit and stare
Gm7
at your fingers through your hair
Bb
I used to wonder
Bbm Am G7
what's going through your mind
 
C
I used to light a flame
Gm7
and whisper your sweet name
Bb
let fingers wander
Bbm Am
the journey down your spine
 
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 C
so baby, don't waste the weather
Gm7 F
And don't wait forever
Dm Am7
we're both halfway to never
G G7
all the time
 
Fmaj7 C
and if you want me to linger
Gm7 F
and slide diamonds on your finger
Dm Am7
then take me out of the ringer
G G7
and let me dry
 
[Verse]
C
I used to lie you down
Gm7
and follow to the ground
Bb
tangled in wonder
Bbm Am G7
like virgins in the dark
 
C
I used to hear you call
Gm7
And feel my weak knees fall
Bb
my treasure plundered
Bbm Am
and traded for your heart
 
[Chorus]
Fmaj7 C
so baby, don't waste the weather
Gm7 F
And don't wait forever
Dm Am7
we're both halfway to never
G G7
all the time
 
Fmaj7 C
and if you want me to linger
Gm7 F
and slide diamonds on your finger
Dm Am7
then take me out of the ringer
G G7
and let me dry
