G* C*
One thought has me turning back
G* D7*
a dozen point the other way
G*
We act upon desire
C*
to each a hand for hire
G* D7* G*
and patience isn't worth the wait
C* G*
You've got knives in your eyes
C* G*
You would be happy not to change your mind
Em* A7*
I can't defend you truly
D7 C7 D7
When I worry about smoke instead of putting out the fire
C*
And if we work it out
G* D7*
Chances abound
Em (7ª casa)
We'd be standing our ground
C*
For no one's better sake
G* D7
(better say) goodbye

What are we waiting for? (x6)
G* C* G* D7* G*
Hum... What are we waiting for?

How faint might that light become

in focus but at miles away?

Although my position

just gives you amunnition
G* D7* G*
be certain that I know my praise
