G*                            C* 
One thought has me turning back
   G*                    D7*
a dozen point the other way
G*                                   
We act upon desire
    C*
to each a hand for hire
       G*          D7*           G*
and patience isn't worth the wait

C*                         G* 
You've got knives in your eyes
              C*                        G*
You would be happy not to change your mind
Em*                    A7*         
I can't defend you truly
           D7              C7                    D7 
When I worry about smoke instead of putting out the fire
                   C*
And if we work it out
G*          D7*                        
Chances abound
                      Em (7ª casa)
We'd be standing our ground
                    C*   
For no one's better sake
G*                 D7
(better say) goodbye
                   (G*-C*-G*-D7)     
What are we waiting for? (x6)
G*  C*  G*                D7*        G* 
Hum... What are we waiting for?

G*                   C*  
How faint might that light become
   G*                 D7*
in focus but at miles away?
  G*             
Although my position
      C*
just gives you amunnition
    G*            D7*        G*
be certain that I know my praise

Em                      A7
I can't defend you truly

            C*
We would be friends
            G*
if we tried again
                 D7*
I'll take second place
                Em
just to end the race
             C*          G*
 for no one's better sake
