IntroAmFCG x2
VerseAmFCGAm
Got a pinch of tobacco in my pocket I'm not gonna roll it no I'm not gonna smoke 'til we're
FCG
staring at the stars and the rockets twinkling in the silvery night
AmFCG
Two sips of whiskey in the flask but I'm not gonna drink it I swear I'll make it last 'til
AmFCG
we're drinking out of the same glass again
ChorusFCGGF
And though the sand may be washed by the sea and the old will be lost in the new
CGGF
four will not wait for three, for three never waited for two
CGG (let ring) Am
and though you may not wait for me, I'll wait for you
FCGAm x2
I'll wait for you
FCGVerseAmFCG
Got a polaroid picture in my wallet, I'm not gonna tear it no I'm not gonna spoil it
AmFCG
it's an unspoken heartbreak, a heartbroken handshake I take with me where I go
AmFCG
Three words on the tip of my tounge not to be spoken or sung or to whispered to
AmFCG
anyone 'til I'm screaming at the top of my lungues again
ChorusFCGGF
And though the sand may be washed by the sea and the old will be lost in the new
CGGF
four will not wait for three, for three never waited for two
CGG (let ring) Am
and though you may not wait for me, I'll wait for you
FCGAm x5 (or fingerpick 2x strike chords 3x)
I'll wait for you aaah
FCGVerseAmFCGAm
Got a pinch of tobacco in my pocket I'm not gonna roll it no I'm not gonna smoke 'til we're
