_ _ _ _ Shouldn't leave a lover alone too long
Lover finds another, then the lover is gone
Find yourself alone in the setting sun
Gonna take a couple years before the next dawn, [G] yeah
[C] If your love is gone
_ _ _ [F] _ [G] _
[F] _ [C] And my love is gone _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Lonesome leaves the bitters, and the bitters leaves the pain
And the pain starts a-bubbling from your heart to your brain
So you never ever make her cry again
But the tears started welling in her eye [F] again
[G] _
[F] _ [C] She was my [Am] best [C] friend, _
_ _ _ [G] _ [F] _ [C] but I did it again
_ _ _ [F] Know that you're [C] tired of the drama
[F] Know [Dm] that you're [C] tired of the pain
[F] Know that you're [Am] tired of our love affair
[F] But honey, _ _ _ [G] can we please [Am] try [C] it again? _ _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [C] _
_ _ [D] _ [Gm] _ [F] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ I'm the type of guy with a wandering eye
Got a couple drinks and I don't know why
Every time I see another girl walk by
Wandering eye starts to _ objectify, [G] yeah
[C] And I don't know why _ _ _
[F] [G] I'm [F] _ [C] _ a natural guy
_ And [F] I know that you're tired [C] of the drama
[F] Know that [Dm] you're tired [C] of the strain
[F]
Know that [C] you're tired of our love [B] affair
But [F] honey, _ _ [G] can we please _
[D] try it [C] again?
_ _ _ [F] _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ [B] _ [C] _ _ [Am] _
_ _ [G] _ [F] _ _ _ _ [C] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ _ _ [N]
It's just an idea
_ _ [C] _ _ [Em] _
Well, thanks a lot, you guys.
_ _ [E] _ _ _
_ _ _ [A] _ _ [Em] _ One more?
You sure? _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] _ _ [Am] _ _ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Em] _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ _ [Am] _ _ _
_ [Em] _ [F] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#] Well, _ _
_ [N] alright.
One last one.
This is called The Waiter.
