Capo 2
[Intro]
| G | D | C | G D | x2
[Verse 1]
G
Is he tall? Is he handsome?
D
Does he make enough and then some
C G D
Does he miss you every minute that he's gone
G
Is he funny? Is he witty?.
D
Does he tell you that you're pretty
C G
Did he hang the moon? Did he do no wrong?
Am C
Is he Mr. Right, I wonder what he's like
G
The one you're waiting on
[Verse 2]
G
'Cause there's an empty seat beside you
D
And every guy here's trying to buy you
C G D
Something to drink, but you just keep brushing them off
G
You're watching whatever's on cable
D
Swirling your glass on the table
C G
Wondering how long is too long
Am C
Is he working late? Is he worth the wait?
G
The one you're waiting on
[Chorus]
C
How many glasses of Cabernet
D
How many minutes slip away
G D C
How many times were you gonna check your phone
C
I'm telling you if you were mine
D
You wouldn't be sitting here counting the time
G D C
You'd never spend a single moment alone
Am C
I bet he don't get how lucky he is
G
The one you're waiting on
[Instrumental]
| D | C | G D | G | D | C | G D |
[Chorus]
C
How many glasses of Cabernet
D
How many boys can you turn away
G D C
How long 'til you turn off your phone
C
And look up at me, I'd be happy to be
G
The one you're waiting on
C
I'd be happy to be
The one you're waiting on
[Outro]
| G | D | C | G D | x2
