...WAITING IN VAIN... by Bob Marley
---------------------..............
*from 'Exodus' (1977)*
Intro:
(x2)
Chorus 1:
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
Verse 1:
From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl,
My heart says follow through.
But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line,
But the waitin' feel is fine.
So don't treat me like a puppet on a string,
'Cos I know how to do my thing.
Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb,
I wanna know when you're gonna come. See...
Chorus 2:
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
Bridge 1:
'Cos if summer is here, I'm still waiting there.
Winter is here, and I'm still waiting there.
Solo:
(x4)
(Like I said)...
Verse 3:
It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door,
And I still can knock some more.
Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible, (I wanna know now),
For I to knock some more? Yah see...
In life, I know, there's lots of grief,
But your love is my re-lief.
Tears in my eyes burn, tears in my eyes burn,
While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn. See...
Chorus 3:
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.
I don't wanna wait in vain for your love.

I don't wanna wait in vain for your love, oh...
I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
I don't wanna wait in vain.
No, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
I don't wanna wait in vain.
No, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
I don't wanna wait in vain.
No, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
I don't wanna wait in vain.
It's your love that I'm waiting on,
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
I don't wanna wait in vain).
It's my love that you're running from.
It's jah love that I'm waiting on,
(I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna, I don't wanna,
I don't wanna wait in vain).
It's me love that you're running from.
