[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
Em B
The frost on this December night is biting
Em
And feasting on my fingers and my thumbs
E Am G F
I try to think of life that’s more exciting
Em B Em Em*
As I am waiting for a bus that never comes
[Verse 2]
Em B
The lights of every late night shop are glaring
Em
They deafen us with neon-vested hums
E Am G F
I ponder how I left you so despairing
Em B Em
As I am waiting for a bus that never comes
[Bridge]
E Am Em
A fleeting flash of madness descended
B Em
We laughed and sang believing we were free
F C
As soon as it began, it was ended
F# B
For what we had was all that it could be
A Bm Bb Am*
Brief ecstasy
[Verse 3]
Em B
But now I hear a motor in the distance
Em
Soon I see a van of drunken bums
E Am G F
It passes on a path of least resistance
Em B Em Em*
As I am waiting for a bus that never comes
[Instrumental]
(Whistling)
Em B B Em
E Am G F
Em B Em E
[Bridge]
Am Em
It’s hard to understand what is happening
B Em
To cool it when the whole world is ablaze
F C
Dividing, like a zip that is unfastening,
F# B
We know we’ll have to go our separate ways
A Bm Bb Am
And not return
[Verse 4]
Em B
The frost on this December night deceives me
Em
It does not cut the bone, it only numbs
E Am G F
My guilty feeling rises up and leaves me
Em B Em Em*
As I am waiting for a bus that never comes
[Outro]
Em B
Oh,oh,oh wo,wo
Em
Oh, oh, wo, wo
E Am G F
I try to think of life that’s more exciting
Em B Em F
As I am waiting for a bus that never comes
Em B Em F
And I am waiting for a bus that never comes
Em B Em* Em*
And I am waiting for a bus that bever comes
