Chords

Note: The song’s actual key is A♭. If you tune your guitar down by one semitone, as Jimi Hendrix did so every string is one semitone lower, you can use the shapes and fingerings for the key of A, E7sus4 etc and it will sound in A♭ [Intro] A/E G/E A/E G/E [Verse 1]
         A
Well I'm standing here freezing

   E7sus4
Inside your golden garden

A                       E7sus4
   Got my ladder leaned up against your wall

   A                    E7sus4
Tonight's the night we planned to run away together

A                              E7sus4
Come on Dolly Mae there's no time to stall

A/C#
But now you're telling me
[Chorus 1]
E                              Gadd9
  I think we better wait 'till tomorrow
Yeah, yeah,
E                              Gadd9
  I think we better wait 'till tomorrow
Girl what you talkin' about
E                              Gadd9
  I think we better wait 'till tomorrow

E
Got to make sure it's right
N.C. So until tomorrow goodnight (Oh what a drag) [Quick intermezzo] A/E G/E [Verse 2]
A                           E7sus4
  Oh Dolly Mae, how can you hang me out this way

A                                       E7sus4
  On the phone you said you wanted to run off with me today

          A
 Now I'm standing here like some

            E7sus4
Turned down serenading fool

A                                    E7sus4
Hearing strange words stutter from the mixed-up mind of you

A/C#
And you keep telling me that ah
[Chorus 2]
E                             Gadd9
I think we better wait till tomorrow,
What are you talkin' about
E                             Gadd9
I think we better wait till tomorrow,
Ah, I can't wait that long
E                             Gadd9
I think we better wait till tomorrow,

E
Got to make sure it's right so until tomorrow goodnight
N.C. (See if I can talk to this girl a little bit) [Verse 3]
A                      E7sus4
Ow, Dolly Mae girl you must be insane

A
So unsure of yourself

                 E7sus4
Leaning from you unsure window pane

A                                  E7sus4
Do I see a silhouette of somebody pointing
Something from a tree
A                                E7sus4
Click bang, Oh what a hang. your daddy just shot poor me

A/C#
(And I hear you say as I fade away)
[Chorus 4]
E                             Gadd9
We don't have to wait till tomorrow, Hey

E                             Gadd9
We don't have to wait till tomorrow, What you say

E                             Gadd9
We don't have to wait till tomorrow

E
It must not have been right so forever goodnight

E                             Gadd9
We don't have to wait till tomorrow

E                             Gadd9
Do I have to wait do I have to wait

E                             Gadd9
We don't have to wait till tomorrow (It's a drag on my part)

E                             Gadd9
We don't have to wait till tomorrow
N.C. Don't have to wait don't have to wait
