I Knew You Were Waiting For Me chords by Aretha Franklin

Chords with lyrics

Intro:
| E MajorE - A augmentedA | A augmentedA - E MajorE |

E MajorE          A/EA/E
Like a warrior that fights, and wins the battle
             E MajorE
I know the taste of victory
                         A/EA/E
Though I went through some nights consumed by the shadows
            E MajorE
I was crippled emotionally
F#m7F#m7             C#m7C#m7
Somehow I made it through the heartache
   F#m7F#m7   C#m7C#m7
Yes I did, I escaped
F#m7F#m7           C#m7C#m7
I found my way out of the darkness
     A augmentedA
I kept my faith (I know you did), kept my faith

E MajorE       A/EA/E
When the river was deep, I didn't falter
           E MajorE        A/EA/E
When the mountain was high, I still believed
          E MajorE       A/EA/E
When the valley was low, it didn't stop me, no no
 F#m7F#m7     C#m7C#m7   F#m7F#m7      A augmentedA      A major 6A6 - E MajorE
I knew you were waiting, I knew you were waiting for me




With an endless desire I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
Like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over, one touch and you set me free
I don't regret a single moment, no I don't looking hack
When I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh

When the river was deep, I didn't falter
When the mountain was high, I still believed
When the valley was low, it didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting, I knew you were waiting for me

A/C#A/C# A/C E/B     G#G# C# minorC#m
So we were drawn together through destiny
      A/C#A/C# A/C E/B         D MajorD
I know this love we shared was meant to be
 F#m7F#m7     C#m7C#m7   F#m7F#m7      C#m7C#m7
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting
 F#m7F#m7     C#m7C#m7   F#m7F#m7      A augmentedA      A major 6A6 - E MajorE
I knew you were waiting , knew you were waiting for me
