As recorded by Waylon Jennings (From the 2025 Album SONGBIRD) [Intro] G [Verse 1]
G
I hear people laughing on the corner by the square

G
The neon flickers on the wall, and I know that you're out there

    C                                                     G
I'm in your bed and listening for your footsteps down the hall

                        D         G
I'll be waiting for you after the ball
[Chorus]
G
After the ball is over, after the ball

G
If you cannot stand, I've got a place for you to fall

    C                                                        G
The blinds are drawn, and I have turned my clock face to the wall

                        D         G
I'll be waiting for you after the ball
[Instrumental Break] G C D G [Verse 2]
G
Loving you is sweet addiction, I need only you

G
Just as long as you come back, go do what you want to do

C                                                       G
Give the world your laughter, girl, I'll have you after all

                        D         G
I'll be waiting for you after the ball
[Chorus]
G
After the ball is over, after the ball

G
If you cannot stand, I've got a place for you to fall

    C                                                        G
The blinds are drawn, and I have turned my clock face to the wall

                        D         G
I'll be waiting for you after the ball
[Instrumental Break] G C G D G [Chorus]
G
After the ball is over, after the ball

G
If you cannot stand, I've got a place for you to fall

    C                                                        G
The blinds are drawn, and I have turned my clock face to the wall

                        D         G
I'll be waiting for you after the ball
[Instrumental Break] G C G D G [Chorus]
G
After the ball is over, after the ball

G
If you cannot stand, I've got a place for you to fall

    C                                                        G
The blinds are drawn, and I have turned my clock face to the wall

                        D         G
I'll be waiting for you after the ball
[Outro]
G
After the ball is over, after the ball
