Dont Wait

G
Well, I was searchin' by myself
         D                      G
Singin' old songs, see if they help

I took the low way along the sea
         D                      G
Met an older man and he said to me

             C
'Sing me a song, son, lay it down'
'Bring it forth then stand your 
   D
ground'
                  G
It smelled like winter, it all felt 
fine
                        D          
In that dry bone hazy late November
  G
 time.

G
He said : 'I've known high times, 
more than once'
                      D            
'Now I stick strictly to the honky 
  G
tonks'

'And I've known danger and I've 
known defeat'
                       D           
'I've seen whole generations fall 
    G
to sleep'.

                    C
'I've danced with angels, I've drank
 my fill'
'I've talked with God out on the 
 D
hill'
                 G
'And I know my face but I live my 
name'

                      D            
'But I go by Charlie Hawker all the
  G
 same'.

G              C       G
Where are you goin' tonight ?
G              C         G
Where are you goin' so late ?
G                        C       
Your country needs you, boy, 
   G
don't wait
G               C
Where are you goin' ?
D               G
Where are you goin' ?

G
And then he stopped : 'Come here to 
me'
                        D          
'So that I can look at you, so that
        G
 I can see'
G
But then he smiled, he let me know
                        D     
And in that space lies all the 
                    G
things I'll never know.

      C
And then the sun sank in the West
He said : 'Boy, you know you may 
             D
never be at rest'
     G
I turned around to face the light
                   D               
And with a heavy heart I walked 
        G
into the night.

G              C       G
Where are you goin' tonight ?
G              C       G
Where are you goin' so late ?
G                        C       
Your country needs you, boy, 
   G
don't wait
G               C
Where are you goin' ?
D               G
Where are you goin' ?
