E7
Writing out lines as they come to me
A7                         E7
Scratching them out almost immediately
A7                   F          E7
Don't know what it's done to me

E7
Well it's cold, it's wet, it's been raining all night
A7                             E7
And there's a letter I've been trying to write
A7                       F                E7
Something better waiting somewhere for me

A                  A7
And one of them is sitting on the wrong coast
E             C#
One awaits an answer by return post
F#       A
Waiting, waiting, waiting

E7
Try to remember how long it's been
A7                              E7
Since there was more to us than paper and pen
A7                F              E7
Think how easy it is to conceive

E7
And I know when we're together again
A7                        E7
We'll be strangers for an hour and then
A7                          F                  E7
We'll have to figure out if this thing is real

A                  A7
And one of them is sitting on the wrong coast
E             C#

Waiting, waiting, waiting

E7
Cold and wet and rain all night
A7                    E7
There's a letter I've got to write
A7                  F              E7
Something better is waiting for me

A                  A7
And one of them is sitting on the east coast
E             C#
One awaits an answer by return post
F#       A
Waiting, waiting, waiting

A                A7
Take a drink and staring out the window
E             C#
Wondering how long this can continue
F#       A
Waiting, waiting
