[Intro]
| G | % | C | G | (piano) | G | % | C | G | (piano + guitar)
[Verse 1]
G With a glass inlaid with gemstones G On a pool around the evening C Among the perfumed roses G Wait for her
[Verse 2]
G With the patience of a packhorse G Loaded for the mountains C Like a stoic, noble prince G Wait for her
[Verse 3]
G With seven pillows laid out on the stair G C The scent of womens' incense fills the air G Be calm, and wait for her
[Verse 4]
G And do not flush the sparrows G That are nesting in her braids C All along the barricades G G G/F# Wait for her
[Chorus]
Em C And if she comes soon | G | G G G/F# | Wait for her Em C And if she comes late | G | % | Wait
[Verse 5]
G Let her be still G As a summer afternoon C | G | A garden in full bloom
[Verse 6]
G Let her breathe in the air G That is foreign to her heart C Let her lips part G Wait for her
[Verse 7]
G Take her to the balcony G See the moon soaked in milk C Hear the rustle of her silk G Wait for her
[Verse 8]
G Don't let your eyes alight upon G The twin doves of her breast C Lest they take flight G G G/F# Wait for her
[Chorus]
Em C And if she comes soon | G | G G G/F# | Wait for her Em C And if she comes late | G | D Wait, wait
(break)
[Verse 9]
G Serve her water before wine G Do not touch her hand C G Let your fingertips rest at her command
[Verse 10]
G Speak softly as a flute would G To a fearful violin C | G G G/F# | Breathe out, breathe in
[Chorus] instrumental
| Em | C | G | G G G/F# |
| Em | C | G | D | (break)
[Outro verse]
G And as the echo fades G From that final fusillade C G Remember the promises you made
