[Intro]
Dm C G F
[Verse 1]
G I heard the stomping of feet dancing C On the woo-den floor upstairs G I wasn't in the mood for laughing C So I sat silent in my chair
[Chorus 1]
F Em Dm There was some-one missing I knew Em Am Outside there fell the rain F C Where had she gone? What could I do? Dm G C F C I played the waiting game
[Verse 2]
G The cigarette smoke was annoying C My mood was fit for a bath G A drink couldn't oil my expression C Nothing could make me laugh
[Chorus 2]
F Em Dm I was worried out of my head Em Am I was in such a state F Em What's keeping her? Where has she gone? Dm G C F C Em I played the waiting game
[Bridge]
Em When you love someone B Fm You worry when they're late G#m When you trust someone Em Am You know the time it takes Dm C G To play the wai-ting game Dm C G To play the wai-ting game, oh
[Guitar Solo]
F C F C
[Verse 3]
G The music got louder and louder C From the wooden floor upstairs G I played with a handful of peanuts C When I saw her standing there
[Outro]
F Em Dm My mood leapt right out of the bath Em Am She had got stuck in the rain F Em Her coat dripped on a hanger Dm G Playing the waiting F Em I couldn't under-stand her Dm G Playing the waiting F Em Seemed like I'd wait forever Dm G C F C Playing the waiting game
