Intro: F Dm Am Bb F Dm Oh-oh-oh Am Bb Oh-oh-oh Verse 1: F Bb You can romanticise your shortcomings, ignore your agency to stop Write a ballad with the details, while skimming off the top F Bb a personality, considering you've been a little overhonest lately Db Dm Gm C7 And you apologise, a dirty clown Chorus: F Dm You found someone to put your arms around Am Playing the waiting game Bb But it all adds up to nothing F Dm You try and you always justify Am Playing the waiting game Bb When it all adds up to nothing Post-Chorus: F Dm Am Bb Playing the waiting game Verse 2: F Do you tantalise or titilate? Bb Knowing it won't make the grade? Do you leave it on the table? Db Dm Gm You apologise, emotionally dry C7 And years go by Chorus: F Dm You found someone to put your arms around Am Playing the waiting game Bb But it all adds up to nothing F Dm You tried messing with your own design Am Playing the waiting game Bb And it all adds up to nothing Post-Chorus: F Dm Am Playing the waiting game Bb But it all adds up to nothing Outro: F Dm Am Playing the waiting game Bb And it all adds up to nothing
