Let's see what he's talking about
I'm waiting for my man
[D]
[A] [D] [G]
[A] [D] [G]
[A] [D] My
[A]
I'm waiting for [D] my man
[G]
[A] [D] [G] 26 dollars in [D] my hand
[G]
[C] [D] up to Dexter to
125
[G] He said [A]
Lexington one two five that's literally a few blocks from me
[D] [G] [A]
[D] [A]
[D] [G] [A]
[D] 26 [G] dollars in [D] my hand
[G] [C] [D]
Up to Dexter to launch
So he's looking to buy something because he said he has $26 in his hand.
He's also waiting for his man
So he's looking to buy something.
I don't know what it is for sure might be a dealer.
So
25
[G] You're shaking dirty [A] more than a lot
[D] [G]
I'm waiting for my [D] man
[G]
[A] [D] Hey, my boy
[G]
What [A] you do you got [D] time?
[G]
[D] Hey, why poor [G] Jason or I win [D] around
[G]
[Bm] [D] Partly sir, it's a [F#m] furthest from my [G] mind.
I'm just [A] looking for dear friend
[G]
I'm waiting for [D] my man
Cuz the first line for the second verse it sound like it was gonna be some confrontation with the you know with the white man
Which is him so if he's talking about himself, which I think he is
But yeah, so I don't know.
I feel like that kind of highlighted like a because he said hey white man
So I feel like that kind of highlights like a ratio tension, you know
I probably like, you know some stereotypes of the time
So, I don't know but you know
He goes on and continues to like dismiss like, you know
Chasing the woman and like it's so focus is to you know, find his dealer
[G] [A] [D] [G]
[D]
[G] [C] [D] He [G] comes
He's on trust you [D] like
[G] [A] [D] beat-up [G] shoes
[D]
[G] [Bm] [D] He's never early he's always me [G] first thing you learn is that [A] you always gotta wait
[Dm]
[G] I'm [A] waiting for my [D] man
[G] Okay, so now we got the arrival of the dealer, you know, he describes him in his all-black outfit
You know and then it's like, you know, the deal is late
I think he says he's always late, but you can never be late
The dealer should never be late when it comes to you know dealing, you know, you got to be on time
You know, but it sound like he got patience.
So, you know
Depending on what he's buying because if he has that much patient
Patience to where like the deal is always late
like I think that kind of goes to show like how much he's looking to buy that substance or
You know the substance for like escape or relief
They come [D] on up [G]
[D] [A]
[D] [G]
[D] [A]
[D] [G] [A]
[D] to a brownstone [G] of three [A] five [D] stairs
[G]
[D] Everybody's [G] pinching.
Yeah, but nobody [D] cares
[G] [D] Yeah, who's got the words if you sweet taste?
[G]
You gotta spit [A] because you got no time to [D] waste
[A] I'm waiting for my [D] man
[A]
Okay, so now
Basically, he talks about going into a brownstone walking up three flights of stairs
So I'm guessing do like the the drug transaction
I'm guessing because you don't want to do it out in the open you want to do it in like a closed space to where
Cops or no one is can see you or like spy on you to be like, okay
Yo, you we see you do a drug transaction.
So now we're gonna lock you up, you know
But you know that the indifference of you know, those around him
I got it kind of highlights like the uh, the isolating nature of like the addiction, you know
So I don't know.
I think the only connection is through the drug itself if I'm not mistaken
[Dm] [G]
[D] Baby, don't you?
[G]
[D] [G]
[D] I'm feeling good.
[A] You know, I'm gonna work it [D] on
[G]
[D] I'm feeling good.
I'm feeling also fine
[G] I'm gonna [A] marinate that from other time
[D] [C]
I'm waiting for [D] my man
[C]
[D] [A]
[D] [A]
[D] [G]
[A] [D] [G]
[D] [Dm] [G]
[D]
[A]
Okay, [D] [G]
[D] [G]
[A] [D] [G]
[D] [A]
[D] [G]
so and that one that basically was like I guess like a
Temporary sense of like, you know feeling brought on brought on by the drug or at least that's how I'm looking at it
So it kind of offer him like a you know, like an escape from reality, you know
But he's like, you know, he's it's kind of like he's ready for like he's ready to return for like the next fix
[D]
Yeah, most definitely cuz it's like, you know what that is only temporary.
So it's like, you know, however, like I guess
they're not
The um [Dm] the acknowledgement of the uh, the the feelings are like short-lived so obviously, you know
You got to come back for more to get that same feeling again
So he's but like I said, he's ready for you know, the next fix.
That's the nature of addiction right there
You know, you ready for the next one already or within a few hours?
[D] All right.
Well there you have it.
That was um, that was Keith Richards
