Waiting in the weeds by The Eagles Capot : fret 1
G                           Em         
It's comin' on the end of August  

G                               Em
Another summer's promise almost gone

              C                                                   
And though I heard some wise man say  

            G
That every dog will have his day

    F                                         Am    D
He never mentioned that these dog days get so long

G                           Em     G  
I don't know when I realized the dream was over  

                 Em
Well, there was no particular hour, no given day

               C                                                            
You know, it didn't go down in flame  

               G 
There was no final scene, no frozen frame

F                              Am    D
I just watched it slowly fade away

   Em                         G                                 
And I've been waiting in the weeds  

               Am             C
Waiting for my time to come around again and

Em                         G                             
Hope is floating on the breeze  

             Am            C
Carrying my soul high up above the ground and

Em                     G                              
I've been keepin' to myself  Knowin' 

            Am         C
that the seasons are slowly changing

Em                                G     
Even though you're with somebody else  

                      Am            C
He'll never love you like I do

G                                         Em         
I've been biding time with the crows and sparrows  

G                                         Em
While peacocks prance and strut upon the stage 

             C                      G     
If finding love is just a dance  Proximity and chance

           F                        Am             D
You will excuse me if I skip the masquerade

Em                             G                                  
And I've been waiting in the weeds  

                 Am            C
Waiting for the dust to settle down along the

Em                               G                               
Back roads running through the fields  

                Am                C
Lying on the outskirts of this lonesome town

Em                              G            
And I imagine sunlight in your hair  

                      Am           
You're at the county fair  

                  C
You're holding hands and laughing

Em                              G                                           
And now the ferris wheel has stopped  

                       Bm                     
You're swinging on the top  

            F#
Suspended there with him

G                            D                                
And he's the darling of the sheik  

                   Bm       F#
The flavor of the week is melting

G                        D                               
Down your pretty summer dress  

               F#
Baby, what a mess you're making
Solo: Bm A#5+ D A#5+
Bm                               A#5+                
I've been stumbling through some dark places        

D                     A#5+
Now I'm following the plow

Bm                             A#5+              
I know I've fallen out of your good graces  

Am            D
It's alright now

Em                            G                                   
And I've been waiting in the weeds  

                  Am           C
Waiting for the summer rain to fall upon the

Em                            G 
Wild birds scattering the seeds  

                  Am           C
Answering the calling of the tide's eternal tune

Em                 G 
The phases of the moon  

                  Am           
The chambers of the heart

             C
The ebb and dart of small gray  

  Em                     G                
Spiders spinning in the dark

                      Am                    C
In spite of all the times the web is torn apart

   Em                        G       
And I've been waiting in the weeds  

                 Am           C
Waiting for the time to come around again and

  Em                      G                 
Hope is floating on the breeze  

Am                         C
Carrying my soul high up above the ground and

  Em                   G                 
I've been keepinl to myself  

  Am                            C 
Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing

  Em                       G                 
Even though you're with somebody else  

 Am                         G 
He'll never love you like I do
