Chords with lyrics

Waiting In Vain
BoB Marley,
By Daniel Frampton

-I don't think the A minorAm is in the original version, so if you don't like it just leave it out,
 I think it sounds pretty nice and this is just how i play it.
 It is also much lower than the originial version making it it's easier for me to sing.


 E MajorE           A augmentedA      A minorAm
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love;
 E MajorE           A augmentedA     A minorAm
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
 E MajorE             A augmentedA
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
 E MajorE            A augmentedA
My heart says follow through.
 E MajorE            A augmentedA
But I know now that I'm way down on your line,
 E MajorE             A augmentedA
But the waiting feel is fine

(Same pattern through the verses and the last bit) E MajorE A augmentedA A minorAm

So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
'cause I know I have to do my thing.
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb
I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love,


Bridge:

   A augmentedA       BB
'cause if summer is here,
  G# minorG#m       F# minorF#m
I'm still waiting there;
 A augmentedA     BB
Winter is here,
 G# minorG#m      F# minorF#m
And I'm still waiting there.


(Same progression E MajorE A augmentedA A minorAm)


Like I said
It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door,
And I still can knock some more:
Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible?
I wanna know now, for I to knock some more.
Ya see, in life I know there's lots of grief,
But your love is my relief
Tears in my eyes burn - tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting - while I'm waiting for my turn,


I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love

I don't wanna I don't wanna I don't wanna I don't wanna I don't wanna wait in vain.
No, I don't wanna I don't wanna I don't wanna I don't wanna I don't wanna wait in vain.
It's your love that I'm waiting on
It's my love that you're running from.

-Dan
