E7 
Writing out lines as they come to me 
A7                         E7 
Scratching them out almost immediately 
A7                   F          E7 
Don't know what it's done to me 

E7 
Well it's cold, it's wet, it's been raining all night 
A7                             E7 
And there's a letter I've been trying to write 
A7                       F                E7 
Something better waiting somewhere for me 

A                  A7 
And one of them is sitting on the wrong coast 
E             C# 
One awaits an answer by return post 
F#       A 
Waiting, waiting, waiting 

E7 
Try to remember how long it's been 
A7                              E7 
Since there was more to us than paper and pen 
A7                F              E7 
Think how easy it is to conceive 

E7 
And I know when we're together again 
A7                        E7 
We'll be strangers for an hour and then 
A7                          F                  E7 
We'll have to figure out if this thing is real 

A                  A7 
And one of them is sitting on the wrong coast 
E             C# 
One awaits an answer by return post 
F#       A 
Waiting, waiting, waiting

E7 
Cold and wet and rain all night 
A7                    E7 
There's a letter I've got to write 
A7                  F              E7 
Something better is waiting for me 

A                  A7 
And one of them is sitting on the east coast 
E             C# 
One awaits an answer by return post 
F#       A 
Waiting, waiting, waiting 

A                A7 
Take a drink and staring out the window 
E             C# 
Wondering how long this can continue 
F#       A 
Waiting, waiting
