Capo: II
Guitar solo intro: Scroll down
Bm7 C#7sus4 F#m7
Like everyone she knows
A/D E
She's holding out for true love
A/D E
Waiting on an answer
A/D E E/F#
Ready for a change
Bm7 C#7sus4 F#m7
And everywhere she goes
A/D E
She's just a little bit on the lookout
A/D E
A day might mean tomorrow
A/D G/E G/A
Questions still remain
Dmaj7
It's not that she's so sad
C#m7 D#dim
She always was a happy soul
C#m7 D#dim
But lately she gets to wonder to herself
E A/F# Bm7
What's the good of going on anymore
Bm7 C#7sus4 F#m7
I see her in her room
A/D E
Sitting at the window
A/D E
Wondering if she's pretty
A/D E E/F#
Feeling just a little small tonight
Bm7 C#7sus4 F#m7
She thinks of going home
A/D E
Giving up on the city
A/D E
Maybe moving back down to mobile
A/D G/E G/A
It's not that far to fall
Dmaj7
I know she won't see me
C#m7 D#dim
But I might just say anyhow
C#m7 D#dim
If I could be right there right now
E F#m7 Bm7 C#m7
As I myself was told
Dmaj7 D/E
Hold tight to your heart's desire
A
Never ever let it go
D/E A
Let nobody fool you into giving it up too soon
Dmaj7 D/E
Tend your own fire
A
Lay low and be strong
Bm7
Wait awhile Wait it out
D/E
Wait it on out Wait it out
A
It'll come along
