[Intro]
C5 out of time sitar improv
Main Theme:
Ab Eb Bb x2
[Verse 1]
Ab Eb Bb I'm on a rock somewhere, It's the only one I Ab Eb Gm know, and I know it well Ab Eb Bb And somehow I know you're there
And I'm waitin' on the
Ab Eb Bb world
Verse 2: Arpeggios start and chords change
Ab Cm Gm I'm ringing the old church bell
I've forgotten how it
Ab Cm Gm goes, but it feels like Hell. Ab Cm Gm I guess you're in Heaven now
And you're never comin'
Ab Cm Gm home
[Chorus]
Ab Cm Gm 'Cause even when I'm wide awake, I know Ab Cm Gm That you've been havin' other dreams for sure Ab Cm Gm If nothing's ever gonna change at all
I'll be waitin' on the
Ab Cm Gm world, Go
Intro again: With singing improv
Ab Eb Bb x2
[Verse 3]
Ab Cm Gm Conditional words, I swear
See the people come and
Ab Cm Gm go, and they go so well Ab Cm Gm They countin' the coins back there
It's the only thing they
Ab Cm Gm know Ab Cm Gm And even when you're down and out, I know Ab Cm Gm That you'll be up in higher ground for sure Ab Cm Gm If nothing's ever gonna change at all
I'll be waitin' on the
Ab Cm Gm world
I'll be waitin' on the
Ab Cm Gm world, Go
[Interlude]
C5 with vocal improv (C Mixolydian Works Here)
[Verse 4]
Ab Cm Gm I'm on a rock somewhere
And I've been lookin' at my
Ab Cm Gm phone, baby, I'm not scared Ab Cm Gm I guess I'm alone, my friend
You left me waitin' on the
Ab Cm Gm world
I'll be waitin' on the
Ab Cm Gm world
I originally thought most of this should be Ab Eb and Bb
but you can hear the synth outlining these chords instead.
It's likely that both chords are being used at the same time,
but you can substitute most chords for their major/minor partners
and it still works. Happy practicing!
