Only Waiting For You (Stephen Stills)
G / Em7 / D / / / G / Em7 / D / / /
G Em7
I cannot remember feeling quite so self assured
D
It must have been back in my teens
G Em7
I was such a basket case when I was young
D
It’s obviously something that I dreamed
C Bm
I have always been a most reclusive kind of guy
Em7 D C
When love’s around I usually run and hide
G D
But don’t you go believing I was ever that confused
C G
I was really only waiting for you
G D G D
Really only waiting for you, what do you suppose that we can do
Em7 D
Anything whatever that you want to last forever
C G / Em7 / D / / /
Really only waiting for you
G Em7
I cannot escape the overwhelming feeling
D
Destiny has taken us in hand
G Em7
And nothing that we do is gonna change the way
D
This love affair is never gonna end
C Bm
And I know it’s hard getting used to the idea
Em7 D C
That your lover wants to be your best friend
G D
With a showing of affection and a measure of romance
C G
This is really only waiting for you
G D G D
Really only waiting for you, what do you suppose that we can do
Em7 D
Anything whatever that you want to last forever
C G
Really only waiting for you
G
Waiting, waiting, only waiting for you
G G / Em7 / D / / /
Waiting, waiting, only waiting for you
G Em7
I’ve been living by myself I do not want for someone else
D
At least that’s what I like to say
G Em7
It was working till the other day I met you
D
And I fell in love from twenty yards away
C Bm
I’ve got one last truly great love left in my life
Em7 D C
And my heart is telling me it might be you
G D
So forget your disappointments I’ll forget about my past
C G
I was really only waiting for you
G D G D
Really only waiting for you, what do you suppose that we can do
Em7 D
Anything whatever that you want to last forever
C G
