Waiting For An Invitation

D     Bm
Lady so black
     Em           A
Like a million cemetery lawns
D         Bm
I don't even try anymore
Em            A
Keeping up with the headstones
D                Bm       Em
Maybe I've been waiting too long, too long
  A      A7         Bm
For somebody to throw my kinda party
   Em          A
And I know, I'm too old

D     Bm
Stadiums cry
             Em            A
Go on wait until your band gets back together
D                     Bm                  Em           A
Don't you think it's probably time you sit and write your fans an apology letter
D                Bm        Em
Maybe you've been waiting too long, too long
  A      A7          Bm
For somebody to throw your kinda party
      Em           A       D
And you're old, you're too old

You're never gonna get one

D       Bm                   Em          A
Lovers they try, they try to whip the stars into compliance
D                  Bm
Careful, don't you pull too hard
        Em                 A
Don't want to knock the planets out of alignment
D                Bm        Em

And you're old, you're too old
