The Waiting

BAND: TOM PETTY AND THE HEARTBREAKERS YEAR: 1981 Note: Playing along with the song will give you a better idea of when to play each chord, and how long to strum it. I try to make my tabs as close to the original recording as possible (i.e. using the exact same chords the artist(s) did, so please give me feedback!) -Intro---------------------------------------------------------------------- G-D/F#-A-D G-D/F#-A G-D/F#-A-D G-D/F#-A -Verse I-------------------------------------------------------------------- A G D Oh baby don??t it feel like heaven right now A G D Don??t it feel like somethin from a dream A G D Yeah I??ve never known nothing quite like this Bm Don??t it feel like tonight might never be again G We know better than to try and pretend A Baby no one could have ever told me bout this -Chorus--------------------------------------------------------------------- G D/F# A D The waiting is the hardest part G D/F# A Every day you see one more card G D/F# A D You take it on faith, you take it to the heart G D/F# A D The waiting is the hardest part GDAD# -Verse II------------------------------------------------------------------- A G D Well yeah I might have chased a couple of women around A G D All it ever got me was down A G D Then there were those that made me feel good Bm But never as good as I feel right now G Baby you??re the only one thats ever known how A To make me wanna live like I wanna live now -Chorus--------------------------------------------------------------------- G D/F# A D The waiting is the hardest part G D/F# A Every day you see one more card G D/F# A D You take it on faith, you take it to the heart G D/F# A D The waiting is the hardest part GDAD# -Bridge (over guitar solo)-------------------------------------------------- Bm Don??t let it kill you baby, don??t let it get to you Don??t let em kill you baby, don??t let em get to you A D I??ll be your breathin heart, I??ll be your cryin fool G F# Don??t let this go too far, don??t let it get to you -Chorus/Outro--------------------------------------------------------------- G D/F# A D The waiting is the hardest part G D/F# A Every day you see one more card G D/F# A D You take it on faith, you take it to the heart G D/F# A D The waiting is the hardest part GDAD#
