As recorded by Maggie Rogers (From the 2022 Album SURRENDER) [Intro]
N.C.       D   G  E  D    G  E
Two, three
[Verse 1]
    D
The more you wait, the more you break

           Dmaj7         D     Gmaj7   D
The longer that it takes to undo

        Dmaj7                  D
All the knots that you've been tying

                                       Gmaj7
On cherry stems and black barbed wire, too
[Pre-Chorus]
    Em
You work all day to find religion

    F#m                     D
And end up standing in your kitchen

Gmaj7
Wondering 'bout the way it's always been

      Em
I'm a firefighter and I can't stop it

F#m                             D
They fan the flames higher than rockets

    G
And leave you standing on an open plane
[Chorus]
                D
Begging for rain

 Gmaj7            D   G
Oh, begging for rain
[Verse 2]
  D
I feel it all and I can't stop it

                                      G
Wish that I could turn my faucet loose

D
On all my friends who keep on calling

                                           G
Like nothing's wrong and asking me "what's new?"
[Pre-Chorus]
       Em
Now, I do my best to not be bitter

F#m
Give my rage a babysitter

     Gmaj7
Stop waiting for the adults to come home

       Em
It's a firework and you can't stop it

    F#m
I'm cutting holes in all the pockets

   G
Of everyone that's calling me insane
[Chorus]
                 D
Oh, waiting for rain

 G               D
Oh, begging for rain

 G              D  A  G  Em
Oh, begging for rain
[Bridge]
       D  A  G  Em  D  A  G  Em
I keep waitin'

       D  A  G  Em  D
I keep waitin'
[Outro]
D
Ooh, ooh

D
Ooh, ooh

D
Ooh, ooh

D
Ooh
