A
I need love, love
   D       A
To ease my mind
          C#m   F#m        Bm          E
I need to find, find,  someone to call mine
         E7
But mama said

A
You can't hurry love
        D            A
No, you just have to wait
         C#m             F#m
She said love don't come easy

It's a game of give and take

No matter how long it takes

C#m
But how many heartaches

Must I stand before I find a love
          Bm
To let me live again
              D
Right now the only thing

That keeps me hanging on
       E
When I feel my strength, yeah

It's almost gone
                E
I remember mama said:

         C#m             F#m

It's a game of give and take

A
How long must I wait?
         D          A
How much more can I take?
       C#m   F#m       Bm
Before loneliness will cause my heart
E
Heart to break?

C#m
No I can't bear to live my life alone
 F#m             Bm      D
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
     Bm             D
But when I feel that I, I can't go on
      E7
These precious words keeps me hanging on
                E

No, love, love don't come easy
      C#m     F#m
But I keep on waiting
  Bm  E
Anticipating
         A
for that soft voice
           D     A
To talk to me at night
         C#m    F#m
For some tender arms
   Bm      E
To hold me tight
       A
I keep waiting

I keep on waiting
