Waiting In Vain By Bob Marley

Intro:Bm-E(2x)

Bm                                    E

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

Bm                                    E

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

Bm                                     E

From the very first time I blessed my eyes on you, girl,

Bm                            E

My heart says follow t'rough.

Bm                                       R

But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,

Bm                          E

But the waitin' feel is fine:

Bm                                    E

So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,

Bm                               E

'Cause I know I have to do my thing.

Bm                                    E

Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb;

Bm                                  E

I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon.

Chorus:

Bm                                 E

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

Bm                                  E

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

Bm                                  E

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

Am7                D

'Cause if summer is here,

Bm                   G

I'm still waiting there;

Am7            D

Winter is here,

Bm                      G

And I'm still waiting there.

(same pattern) (Bm-E)

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,

See!

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 wait in vain for your love
