Im Still Waiting

...I'M STILL WAITING... by Diana Ross

*Released 1971*

(Original Key: Ab)

Intro:

F C, Dm C F C, Am E,

Verse 1:

I remember when, I was five and you were ten, boy,

You knew that I was shy, so you teased and made me cry.

But I loved you...

Verse 2:

Then one day you came, you told me you were leaving,

You gave your folks the blame and made me cry a-gain.

When you said...

Chorus 1:

Little girl, please don't wait for me,

Wait patiently for love, some-day will surely come.

Little girl, please don't wait for me,

Wait patiently for love, some-day will surely come.

And I'm still wait-ing.

Interlude:

I'm waiting,

Ooh, still waiting.

Bridge 1:

(I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool to keep waiting,

I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool).

(I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool to keep waiting,

I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool).

Interlude:

Verse 3:

Then someone finally came; he told me that he loved me,

I put him off with lies; he could see I had no eyes.

So he left me...

Verse 4:

Once again, a-lone like a child without her playmate,

I had to face the truth; I was still in love with you.

But you said...

Chorus 2:

Little girl, please don't wait for me,

Wait patiently for love, some-day will surely come.

Little girl, please don't wait for me,

Wait patiently for love, some-day will surely come.

And I'm still wait-ing.

Break:

Love has never shown his face,

Since the day you walked out that door.

You filled my life with empty space,

Come back; can't you see it's you, I'm waiting for?

Coda:

(with Vocal Adlibs)

(I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool to keep waiting,

I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool).

(I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool to keep waiting,

I'm just a fool, I'm just a fool).
