Don't Wait by The Band




           Don't Wait






C G C G C G D G (Harmonica intro)

G             
Well, I was searchin' by myself
         D                      G
Singin' old songs, see if they help

I took the low way along the sea
         D                      G
Met an older man and he said to me

             C
'Sing me a song, son, lay it down'
                                   D
'Bring it forth then stand your ground'
                  G
It smelled like winter, it all felt fine
                        D            G
In that dry bone hazy late November time.

G
He said : 'I've known high times, more than once'
                      D              G
'Now I stick strictly to the honky tonks'

'And I've known danger and I've known defeat'
                       D               G
'I've seen whole generations fall to sleep'.

                    C          
'I've danced with angels, I've drank my fill'
                                  D
'I've talked with God out on the hill'
                 G
'And I know my face but I live my name'
                      D              G
'But I go by Charlie Hawker all the same'.

G              C       G
Where are you goin' tonight ?
G              C         G
Where are you goin' so late ?
G                        C          G
Your country needs you, boy, don't wait
G               C
Where are you goin' ?
D               G
Where are you goin' ?

G                         
And then he stopped : 'Come here to me'
                        D                  G
'So that I can look at you, so that I can see'
G
But then he smiled, he let me know
                        D                         G          
And in that space lies all the things I'll never know.

      C
And then the sun sank in the West
                                              D
He said : 'Boy, you know you may never be at rest'
     G
I turned around to face the light
                   D                       G
And with a heavy heart I walked into the night.

G              C       G
Where are you goin' tonight ?
G              C       G
Where are you goin' so late ?
G                        C          G
Your country needs you, boy, don't wait
G               C
Where are you goin' ?
D               G
Where are you goin' ?

C     G
La la la
C     G
La la la
C     G    D     G
La la la,  la la la

C     G
La la la
C     G
La la la
C     G    D     G
La la la,  la la la

C     G
La la la
C     G
La la la
C     G    D     G
La la la,  la la la
