I’ll wait (1984, US 13)     (video)

 

 Dm                                                                                                      G

1.   You’ve got me captured, I’m under your spell, I guess I’ll never learn,

Dm                                                           - A

    I have your picture, yes, I know it well,       another page is turned.

Dm                                                                                    G

    Are you for real ? It’s so hard to tell from just a magazine,

Dm                                                                - A 

    yeah, you just smile and the picture sells,     look what that does to me.

 

Dm                   Bb                        - C                                                G

I’ll wait till your love comes down,      I’m coming straight for your heart,

Dm                         Bb                - C                        G 

no way, you can’t stop me now,      as fine as you are.

 

   Dm                                                                                               G

2.     I wrote a letter and told her these words, that meant a lot to me,

Dm                                                              - A

    I never sent it, she wouldn’t have heard,       her eyes don’t follow me.

Dm                                                                                                        G

    And while she watches, I can never be free, such good photography.

 

+  CHORUS     +  Dm ~ ~ ~ ~

 

  Dm                                                                                                  G  

3.    You can’t imagine what your image means, the pages come alive,

Dm                                                             - A

    your magic free to everyone who reads,      heartbreakin’ motor drive.

Dm                                                                                   G

    Are you for real ? It’s so hard to tell from just a magazine,

Dm                                                               - A

    yeah, you just smile and the picture sells,     look what that does to me.

 

+  CHORUS (2x) ….
