Waiting For The Day Cifras

Waiting For The Day (Gerry Rafferty)
 
[Verse 1]
E7
Well here I am, back in town
E7
Just as the night is comin' down
A7
Warm wind blowin' through the trees
C             G       C          G
I watch them swing, I watch them sway
D          A              E7
Lie here waiting for the day.
 
 
[Verse 2]
E7
Sleep won't come, I need a drink
E7
Stop my head, don't wanna think
A7
Wishing I could be with you
C      G             C     G
But I know you're so far away
D             A              E7
And I'm here waiting for the day.
 
 
[Chorus]
A                        G
Water of life pour your light down on me
        D                           A
Take me out of this darkness, sweet star of the sea
A                      G
Water so sweet you can open my eyes
         D                           A            D  A
You can bring down the rain on this desert so dry-y-y.
 
 
[Verse 3]
E7
Out on the street, shadows fall
E7
Silence speaks, I hear it call
A7
City of the living dead
C          G             C    G
Count the lights on the motorway
D          A              E7
Lie here waiting for the day (alright).
 
 
[Chorus]
A                        G
Water of life pour your light down on me
        D                           A
Take me out of this darkness, sweet star of the sea
A                      G
Water so sweet you can open my eyes
         D                           A            D  A
You can bring down the rain on this desert so dry-y-y.
 
 
[Verse 4]
E7
Yes here I am, back in town
E7
Just as the night is comin' down
A7
Warm wind blowin' through the trees
C             G       C          G
I watch them swing, I watch them sway
D          A              E7
Lie here waiting for the day (alright)
