Am		     G            C
I hope that you like it in your little motel

        C                    G               F
And I hope that the suite sleep suits you well

            Am                     C            F
Well I can see it as time and a sight through smell

Am                          C     F
That's why it's nice to be by yourself



         Am                     C
'Cause that's what I'm waiting for

Am                       G

      Am                  G          C
We treat mishaps like sinking ships and

                                G         F
I know that I don't wanna  be put out to drift

           Am            G             C              F
Well I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and

        Am               G          F
They both tell me we're better than this



           Am                   G

C                              F
That's what I'm waiting for, darlin



       Am                   G          C
We trade tit for tat, yeah, that for this

          Am                            G             F
And I don't think that there was an insult that was missed

        Am               G         C               F
I can see it in your eyes like I taste your lips and

Am     G      F
I'm very sorry



         Am                     G

          Am                  C
The remainders of a shooting star
                         G          C      F
Landed directly on our broke-down little car

          Am        C       F
Before then we had made a wish

          Am   G    C
That we would be missed

   Am                    G        C
If one or another just did not exist



        Am                      G
'Cause that's what I'm waiting for

 G                      C
That's what I'm waiting for

Am                              F
