Subject: CRD: Waiting for Tonight – Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
WAITING FOR TONIGHT by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
CHORDS:
Verse and Chorus: F#m/E/D//
Pre-chorus: E//D//
Bridge: G D/D/A
LYRICS:
I went walking down the boulevard
Past the skateboards and the beggars
I started looking in the windows
Just started walking letting my mind roam
If she hung around too much I might take her for granted
But when I was away she seemed an angel
The only one who really cared about me
The only one without and angle
Pre-chorus:
For so long I’ve been lonely
Now I’m too weak to fight
Chorus:
I’ve been waiting for tonight (Goodnight my love)
I’ve been waiting for tonight (Sleep tight my love)
Yes and I had a little time to kill
Yeah as I crossed the parking lot
And I was feeling lucky just to have a place to go
Yeah my nerves were feeling shot
Pre-chorus:
For so long I’ve been weary
There was no end in sight
– Repeat Chorus –
Bridge:
Oh and I’ve been waiting ’round (oh-oh-oh)
For a night like this (yeah-ah-ah)
Yeah I felt it coming down (coming down)
Since out first kiss
SOLO
(Goodnight my love)
Yeah and I’m wrestling with my overcoat
Yeah and I’m fighting with my thoughts
Yeah I’m gonna trust my intuition
I’m gonna hope I don’t get lost
Pre-chorus:
For some time I’ve been lonely
I’ve been too weak to fight
– Repeat Chorus x2 –
(Goodnight my love)
(Sleep tight my love)
(Goodnight my love)
(Sleep tight my love)
