Peter McPoland – Wait A While (Guitar)

     C
Well, it's a marvel to me

D           G                   C
Oh, when my little blue eyes see

C                             D
You standing there beside the window

        G       D  Em
Curling hair as if you don't know

          C               D
What you look like on the first night

         G              C
That I saw you under streetlights

                            D
Next to pine trees that had littered

        G                   C
All the right-turn-only lanes

 C                   D                  G                 C
And it's undeniably silly to watch my friends resort to killing

                           D               G                 Em
All their smiles and their willingness to wake, come tomorrow

      C                   D                    G                 C
Their pockets filled with voices, telling them to make the choice

                        D              G
To clench the rolled-up coins in their fists

C              G C
Oh, wait a while

G         Em   A      D
For it all to come so fast

C              G C
Oh, wait a while

G      Em      A      D
For it all to come at last

C                            D           G           C
Still, while I'm engaged in ceremonial, dare I say emotional

C                    D          G               Em
Young women latching on to ever-changing drama songs

        C                D             G       C
Filling places every year that earlier were so clear

C                   D                     G                 C
Besides the blue and black chairs that to me are just so dear

                         D                   G                 C
For I've seen them since the second grade in theatre shows and big parades

                   D                     G                    Em
Around the town of pine tree graves and wooded Woodland shady glades

        C                   D
I watched beside some asphalt piers

    G                 C
And skin my knees and snuck some beers

               D                 G
All around the boys, so long you boys, another year

C             G  C
Oh, wait a while

G          Em  A      D
For it all to come so fast

C             G  C
Oh, wait a while

G      Em     A       D
For it all to come at last

C              G  C
Oh, wait a while

G           Em  A     D
For it all to come so fast

C            G   C
Oh, wait a while

G          Em  A       D
For it all to come at last

C           G   C
Oh, wait a while

G          Em  A       D
For it all to come so fast

C         G  C
Wait a while

G          Em   A     D
For it all to come at last

C         G  C
Wait a while

G           Em   A     D
For it all to come so fast

C          G  C
Wait a while

G           Em    A     D
For it all to come at last

C         G C
Wait a while

G          Em      A     D
For it all to come so fast

C        G   C
Wait a while

G          Em       A    D
For it all to come at last
