Sloan – Waiting For Slow Songs (Guitar)

G                                 Bm
When you and your cast of friends arrive

                             C
And the party reaches a new high

                       G
Don't you think it'll last too long

Am                
Before you know it baby

B7                          G
They break out into that song

                                   Bm
That I know I've heard it once or twice

                              C
From where I just can't be precise

                      G
Even though it's irrelevant

Am              B7
It's as if I've woken from

                           E
A confused and cloudy dream

Fmaj                         C
But you write the saddest song

                Fmaj               G
Turn around and make it a singalong

Fmaj                   C
The heart scratch melody

                        Fmaj                D      B
Means there's more than this for you and me

         G                                Bm
When you wait by the door, look for your ride

                                     C
Where the shoes are piled up on the side

                      G       
And the dancing's out of hand

Am                             B7                        G
Don't leave just 'cause they won't play your favourite band

                            Bm
And the night it goes on and on

                              C
And I'm waiting for slow songs

                G
But I block out most of the singing

Am                     B7
Replaced by bells, is that your ride?

Fmaj                         C
Could you write the saddest song

                Fmaj               G
Turn around and make it a singalong

Fmaj                   C
The heart scratch melody

                        Fmaj              
Means there's more than this for you and me

D      B
Yeah

G                             Bm
And the night it goes on and on

                                 C
I'm through waiting for slow songs

                 G        
But I block out most of the ringing

Am                        B7
Replaced by thoughts unjustified

F                               C
Could you write the saddest song

                 F                  C
Turn around and make it a singalong

     F                  C
The heart scratch melody

                       F                  C
Means there's more to this than you and me

     F                    C
If words could be combined

                   F                   C
To describe your trademark look tonight

     F                            C
I'd write it out to boost my career

                   F                          D      B
But you know that writing always takes me years
