[Verse]
G9                        E9
It's coming on the end of August
G9                              E9
Another summer's promise almost gone
              C9                 
And thought I heard some wise men 
                G9
say that every dog will have his day
         F                       
He never mentioned that these dog 
             Am      D
days get so long


             G9                 
I don't know when I realized the 
           E9
dream was over
                G9                 
Well, there was no particular hour,
          E9
 no given day
            C9                     
You know it didn't go down in 
               G9
flame, there was no final scene, no 
frozen frame
F                              Am
I just watched it slowly fade 
      D
away

[Chorus]

    Em                       G
And I've been waiting in the weeds
               Am            C    
Waiting for my time to come around
  D
 again
    Em                      G
And hope is floating on the breeze
Continúa después del anuncio
            Am            C        
Carrying my soul high up above the 
D
ground


    Em                     G
And I've been keeping to myself,
                 Am           C   
Knowing that the seasons are 
  D
slowly changing
Em                                
you and though you're with 
  G
somebody else
                     Am            
He'll never love you like I do
 C      D

[Verse]
G9                                
I've been biding time with crows 
    E9
and sparrows,
      G9                           
While peacocks prance and strut 
       E9
upon the stage.
           C9                    
If finding love is just a dance, 
G9
proximity and chance
           F                    
You will excuse me if I skip the 
       Am      D
masquerade.

[Chorus]
    Em                       G
And I've been waiting in the weeds,
                Am             C
Waiting for the dust to settle down
 D        Em                
Along the back roads, running 
              G
through the fields
             Am               
Lying on the outskirts of this 
 C        D
lonesome town

      Em                       G
And I imagine sunlight in your hair
                     Am          
you're at the county fair, You're 
         C         D
holding hands and laughing
    Em                      
And now the Ferris Wheel has 
  G
stopped,
                       Bm  
You're swinging on the top, 
           F#
suspended there with him
    G                       D     
And he's the darling of the chic, 
                  Bm
the flavor of the week
   F#      G                       
Is melting down your pretty summer 
D                  Bm          
dress, baby what a mess you're 
F#
making

I've been stumbling though some dark
 places
But I'm following the plow
I know I've fallen out of your good 
graces
But it's all right now.


And I've been waiting in the weeds,
Waiting for the summer rain to fall
Upon the wild birds, scattering the 
seeds,
Answering the calling of the tide's 
eternal tune,
the phases of the moon, the chambers
 of the heart, the egg and dart
A small, gray spider spinning in the
 dark,
In spite of all the times the web is
 torn apart.
