                WHO ARE YOU WAITING FOR
                   MELISSA ETHERIDGE

NOTE: Since this is a PIANO based song and not
      one for guitar the best way to play this
      is to have 2 guitars play. GUITAR 1 plays
      the first tab/fill while GUITAR 2 plays
      the second as shown. These continue
      mainly throughout the entire song.

INTRO: CONTINUE THIS PATTERN

I did not fall   when you found me I was face down
                C   F   C                       F
My confidence small    pushed off the merry go round
  C                   F
Wishes and horses and all the kings’ men
  C                              F
Could not put my heart back together again
C                      F                C
 I’m through with love   isn’t it clear my friend

Broken again
  C                         F            C        F
Shards of the years that I lost stuck in my skin
          C                     F
And the scars the least of the cost
      C                F
It’s obvious now that I’m damaged goods
  C                       F
Can’t seem to find love don’t know if I could
