[Intro] C - F/A G11 x4 [Verse]
      C              F/A            G11         C - F/A G11
I was doing alright, layin' in and layin' low

      C                   F/A           G11                 C             F/A G11
I was wasting my night, calling in my favorite songs on the local radio

      C                       F/A      G11                C - F/A G11
I was standing in the window, staring down to the street

               C                          F/A                G11                 C - F/A G11
Just when the lightning flashed and the thunder rolled, the telephone rings
[Chorus]
F/A              G11                       C    
I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain

        F/A                     G11                       C       G11 
and the rain keep coming but it ain't enough to cover the pain
[Verse]
          C                       F/A         G11               C       F/A G11
And I've always been a fool for a conversation and a couple of smokes

           C                       F/A                          G11         C       F/A G11
Yeah, when I'm feeling this blue I need just someone someone to laugh at my jokes
[Chorus]
F/A              G11                       C     
I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain

         F/A                      G11                   C     G11
And it's early evening so there's hope for a better day
[Break] C - F/A G11 x 4 [Bridge]
F/A        G11     
     Now I know it's getting late

F/A                            G11
     It's Friday night and the crowds are starting to fade away 

F/A                       G11
     I know I shouldnt be here but I keep thinking any second she'll be coming 'round the corner
[Verse]
             C             F/A           G11                   C - F/A  G11
And I should be in my room, and I should learn how to forget

         C                 F/A         G11                C - F/A  G11
Well she may be pretty someday I'll be sick of her shit
[Chorus]
F/A              G11                       C    
I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain

        F/A                     G11                       C    
and the rain keep coming but it ain't enough to cover the pain

F/A              G11                       C     
I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain

        F/A                      G11                   C   
And its early evening so there's hope for a better day
