Angel Olsen - The waiting chords
Start Jamming...
[A] [D] Here you come [G] along
[Am] I take a breath and [D] remind myself that [G] I too can be strong
[Am] Thought I was cool, [D] turns out I'm a [Am] fool
Clearly you've proved [D] me wrong
[G] I didn't know what [Am] I was missing [D] when [G] I was alone
And now [A] I'm [Eb] [D]
[G] fruitlessly waiting for
[Am] Someone not [D] thinking before they start rushing [G] to my door
[Am] Someone to [D] run, not walk
[Am] Oh, someone to [D] sing, not talk
[Am] Oh, no hesitation [D] at all
[G] Sometimes I [Am] need you to be the one [G] to call
[A] Well, [Am] I'm lost in my [D] thoughts, they tumble ahead
[Am] Over and over [D] again
Yet it's true
[A] Just take a look [Gbm] at [Bm] what's [Am] been [G] done to me
[A] I've wasted [Am] time [D] to ponder
[A] Here I am now, all [D] others then wonder
[G] Hardly I do [Am] this to myself, but [D] why can't you see?
[G] The gesture is [A] small, but know [Am] that it [D] means the world to me
Oh, [Am] forgive me for [D] wanting
I'm only learning [Am] life for giving myself [D] and now there's no returning
[G] I want to be [A] the one who [D] knows the best [G] way
I want to be [Am] the one who [D] knows the best [G] way
I want to be [Am] the one who [D] knows the best [G] way to love you
But now [Am] I'm [Eb] [D]
foolishly [G] waiting for
[Am] Someone not thinking before [D] they start [G] rushing to my door
[Am] Someone to run, [D] not walk
[Am] Oh, someone to sing, [D] not talk
[Am] Oh, no hesitation [D] at all
[G] Sometimes I [C] need you to be the [D] [G] one to call
I [Am] need you to [D] be the [G] one
