Waiting For Slow Songs chords by Sloan

G                                 Bm
When you and your cast of friends arrive
                             C
And the party reaches a new high
                       G
Don't you think it'll last too long
Am
Before you know it baby
B7                          G
They break out into that song
                                   Bm
That I know I've heard it once or twice
                              C
From where I just can't be precise
                      G
Even though it's irrelevant
Am              B7
It's as if I've woken from
                           E
A confused and cloudy dream

F#m      D       Dsus4 D Dsus2 Dsus4 D Dsus2

Fmaj                         C
But you write the saddest song
                Fmaj               G
Turn around and make it a singalong
Fmaj                   C
The heart scratch melody
                        Fmaj                D      B
Means there's more than this for you and me

         G                                Bm
When you wait by the door, look for your ride
                                     C
Where the shoes are piled up on the side
                      G
And the dancing's out of hand
Am                             B7                        G
Don't leave just 'cause they won't play your favourite band
                            Bm
And the night it goes on and on
                              C
And I'm waiting for slow songs
                G
But I block out most of the singing
Am                     B7
Replaced by bells, is that your ride?
You only just arrived


Fmaj                         C
Could you write the saddest song
                Fmaj               G
Turn around and make it a singalong
Fmaj                   C
The heart scratch melody
                        Fmaj
Means there's more than this for you and me
D      B
Yeah

G                             Bm
And the night it goes on and on
                                 C
I'm through waiting for slow songs
                 G
But I block out most of the ringing
Am                        B7
Replaced by thoughts unjustified
I wish that I could write

F                               C
Could you write the saddest song
                 F                  C
Turn around and make it a singalong
     F                  C
The heart scratch melody
                       F                  C
Means there's more to this than you and me
     F                    C
If words could be combined
                   F                   C
To describe your trademark look tonight
     F                            C
I'd write it out to boost my career
                   F                          D      B
But you know that writing always takes me years

E      F#m      D       Dsus4 D Dsus2 Dsus4 D Dsus2
E      F#m      D       Dsus4 D Dsus2 Dsus4 D Dsus2
