Kathy Mattea – Patiently Waiting (Guitar)

     G               C                    D
Well nothin' new has passed this way in a long time,

G              C          D
Maybe nothin's ever gonna come,

    G                C               D
And nothin' seems to grow outside my window,

  G                C             D
I think I'd better go and get me some,

                C               D    
Well, I want to get some of the gold in the hills,

      G               C
That's makin' people nervous,

                                D
You know they get scared of the cold and the chill,

      G              C
Start prayin' God preserve us,

  D
I can't believe how long I've stayed,

D
Two more days till I get paid,

         D
And I'll find that small town boy I'm datin,

C                 D
Tell him I'm done patiently waiting,

G    C  D   D             G   C   D
Hey, yeah  Patiently waitin,

     G                 C                    D
Well I've had fun just holding hands at the movie show,

    G                   C              D
And I've had good times tearing up the town,

         G                 C                        D
But I've spent cold nights waitin' out front of the movie show,

              G                   C                D
Thinking that half the hands that held me, held me down,

                C               D    
Well, I want to get some of the gold in the hills,

       G               C

                                D

G                C                      D
Some folks never get their share of the sweet life,

G               C              D
Some just come around a little late,

              G            C            D
Oh, and I got this feeling sitting at a stop light,

           G                C
Seems like good things only come to those who,

D
Hit the road when they know what they want,

        C                       D    
Well, I want to get some of the gold in the hills,

       G               C

I'm done patiently waitin,
