Sarah McLachlan nació y fue adoptada en Halifax, Nueva Escocia, Canadá. A los cuatro años sus padres le regalaron un ukelele. De niña, tomó lecciones de voz, junto con el estudio del piano y la guitarra clásica. Cuando tenía 17 años de edad, se integró en una banda de rock llamada The October Game.
Después del primer concierto de The Octuber Game, en la universidad de Dallhousie, la casa discográfica independiente Nettwerk ubicada en Vancouver, le ofreció a Sarah un contrato para grabar un disco.
¡Cuatro años de duro trabajo!Este mes de mayo cumplimos cuatro años al aire. Seguimos trabajando en la difusión de este maravilloso instrumento, ¡gracias por participar en nuestra historia!

Song: Wait written and performed by Sarah McLachlan
from the album "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy" 2nd track
transcribed by Georgia Macdonald
This is my interpretation of what the chords of this great song. If anyone knows the meaning of this song please post a message at alt.music.s-mclachlan !!please!!
The introduction and verses go like this:
Bm - - - F#m7 - - - "Under a blackened sky" Asus - - - Esus - - - "Far beyond the glaring street lights" Bm - - - F#m7 - - - "Sleeping on empty dreams" Asus - - - Esus - - - "The vultures lie and wait"
The chorus goes like this:
G / / / "When all we wanted . . ." Bm / / / "Was a dream" D / / / "For heaven to hold that . . ." G / / / "Precious little thing" G / / / "With every generation . . ." Bm / / / "Yields" D / / / "A newborn hope . . ." A - - - "Unjaded by their years"
The interlude / bridge part is just the verse disorted and with heavy effects or someone could transcribe a solo!
And that is about it. There might be a few mistakes (Esus could be Esus7 or Esus/B and F#m7 might be just F#m) but don't kill me over them (besides, Sarah McLachlan's fans are 99% nice people!!!)
Also could play the song with a capo on the first fret [Capo I] (I think how Sarah does it)
