Waiting My Turn

Waiting My Turn by The Connells

off of the One Simple World album

The song is actually played a half step lowere than shown here

but this is the easier way to play it. If you want to play

along then transpose it down a half step.

The opening riff is the bass notes G F# C C C D G

(If you can't get it listen to the song-- that goes for

everything here.)

This same riff is used for the verse but with chords.

Use a full G, full G with F# bass, Cadd9(?), and D

Full G:--o-- G with F#:--o-- Cadd9:--o--

--o-- --o-- --o--

----- ----- -----

----- ----- -o---

-o--- ----- --o--

--o-- -o--- -----

The chorus is C G D D C G C

The outro is G C D G C D which changes to Em C D G Em C D G

after the first time through

Here's the song:

I asked her to stay here with me a while, Oh she said no

These words mean nothing these thoughts won't fly, O she said no

And where would this lead us to anyway, O she said no

Well I crossed the line in half the time and that's insane

O she said

C G D D C G D(not C as above)

Hey now keep yourself in town, won't you?

And daylight keep yourself in sight, won't you?

G G/F# C add9 D

So I asked her to come back some other time, O she said no

These words ring holloow these thoughts aren't mine, O she said-

Hey now keep yourself in town, won't you?

And daylight keep yourself in sight, won't you?

So I'm sitting here and waiting my turn, Oh well maybe next time

So I'm sitting here and waiting my turn, Oh well Maybe next time

Maybe next time, I will learn, oh yes

Maybe next time I will learn.

The first Em in the outro falls on the Maybe.

Good luck understanding this all. Thanks to Ben Foster for

figuring this out with me.

See ya,

Chris Ambrose
