Wait For Me by Motopony
Wait For Me
[Verse]
F# B C#
She'll come to me in a dream
F# (F#)
And I don't even know her name
B C#
A pretty mark upon her breast
F# (F#)
To signify her from the rest
B C#
But her and I are just the same
F# (F#)
Building bridges outta faith
B C#
She stands upon a dinner plate
F#
And tells me that I'll have to wait
[Chorus]
F# B
(Oooh, Wait for me)
C# F#
I know it won't be easy
B
What a thing
C#
To believe
F#
In a dream
[Verse]
F# B C#
Perhaps I knew her long ago
F#
I wrote her poems at nine years old
B C#
But then I did become a man
F#
The letter slipped right through my hands
B C#
Practiced all my wit and charm
F#
Had many girls on every arm
B C#
I learned the depths of love and hate
F#
But never did learn how to wait
[Chorus]
F# B C#
Wait for you
F#
You say it like it's easy to do
B
What a thing
C#
To believe
F#
In a dream
[Verse]
B C#
I hope you know that all my life
F#
I have been searching for a wife
B C#
A partner and a confidant
F#
The girl who wants the things I want
B C#
A girl who doesn't come along
F#
Cuz she's already where I'm goin'
B C#
I stand upon a broken stage
F#
I beg ya darling, please, please wait
[Chorus]
F# B C#
Wait for me
F#
I know it won't be easy
F# B
What a thing
C#
To believe
F#
In a dream

version 3
Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
(If you want it in the original key, tune the strings all a half step down, so that its
D#G#C#F#A#d#. But sometimes I'm just too lazy to tune everything so I just play it half
step up basically. For the verses, you just repeat the two lines.)

[Verse 2]
(play the same as verse 1)
Perhaps I knew her long ago
I wrote her poems at nine years old
But then I did become a man
The letter slipped right through my hands
Practised all my wit and charm
Had many girls on every arm
I learned the depths of love and hate
But never did learn how to wait
[Chorus]
Wait for you
You say it like it's easy to do
What a thing
To beli-eve
In a dream
[Verse 3]
(play the same as verse 1)
I hope you know that all my life
I have been searching for a wife
A partner and a confidant
The girl who wants the things I want
A girl who doesn't come along
Cuz she's already where I'm goin'
I stand upon a broken stage
I beg ya darling, please, please wait
[Chorus]
Wait for me
I know it won't be easy
What a thing
To beli-eve
In a dream
