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
