 G                     C9                                     D 
Common man, six foot tall he stands
 C9                                                                                       D 
Waiting on his date for some company party in France
 G                             C9                                                               D 
And she's late, the boss man said "a quarter till eight"
 C9                                                                                                                                 D 
And as nine rolled around at his watch he's looking down, the ticking fate
 C9                                           D                                         G 
Oh the funny thing about love is it makes you wait
 G                                             C9                                                                   D 
He wore his good shoes, now he's walking them home with the homesick blues
 C9                                                                                                                                   D 
Feeling like he fucked up, it's all right he'll get back up because he chooses to
 G                         C9                                                 D 
His overcoat, speckled with snow he walks alone
 C9                                                                                                                                         D 
Just then he turns his head and sees a girl of which they said the poets wrote
 C9               D                           Em                                                 G 
Don't hesitate my dear, don't wait put it all on the line
 C9                           D                                           Em                               G 
I'm a leap of faith my dear, and I'm slipping down your spine
 C9         D                                         Em                                     G 
I will wait my dear till I'm dead or the end of my time
 C9                       D                     G 
Or you let me know you're mine
 G                             C9                                                               D 
He went insane  oh the thought of her tortured his brain
 C9                                                                                                                 D 
So he retraced his steps so he would not forget where she'd been
 G                               C9                                               D 
But she was gone, just the scent of her lingered on
 C9                                                                                                                         D 
So he lived all of his days with his head stuck in a maze half stoned
 C9               D                                 Em                                           G 
Don't hesitate my dear, don't wait put it all on the line
 C9                       D                                           Em                                   G 
I'm a leap of faith my dear, and I'm slipping down your spine
 C9           D                                     Em                                         G 
I will wait my dear till I'm dead or the end of my time
 C9                     D                         G 
Or you let me know you're mine
 C9                     D                         G(C9 
Or you let me know you're mine
