Wait
Song: Wait
Album: Time Without Consequence
Hi! This tab is based the tab by crookedpath that was added before (thank you!), only I
wanted to figure out the exact fingerpicking parts Alexi Murdoch is playing in his
version. So I tried and I thought I would share it! This is my first tab: I'm not an
expert at this, so I'm open to feedback. I really love this song, and the fingerpicking sounds
right to me this way. Good luck and have fun!

D A
Feel I'm on the verge of some great truth
D A
Where I'm finally in my place
D Am7
But I'm fumbling still for proof
C G
And it's cluttering my space
C G
Casting shadows on my face

D A
And though I have the strength to move a hill
D A
I can hardly leave my room
D Am7
So I'll sit perfectly still
C G
And I'll listen for a tune
C G
When my mind is on the moon
Chorus (strumming):
D Am7
And if I stumble, And if I stall,
C G
And if I slip down, And if I should fall,
D Am7
And if I can't be, All that I could be
C G
Will you, Will you wait for me?

D D
'Cause everywhere I seem to be
D D
I am only passing through
D Am7
I dream these days about the sea
C G
I always wake up feeling blue
C G
Wishing I could dream of you
Repeat chorus (with minor lyrics changes):
D Am7
And if I stumble, And if I stall,
C G
And if I slip down, And lose it all,
D Am7
And if I can't be, All that I could be,
C G
Will you, Will you wait for me?
Finale:
D Am7
And wait for me, and wait for me,
C G
And wait for me, would you wait for me,
End:
D Am7
And wait for me, please wait for me,

Please wait for me, would you wait for me,
