[Verse]
Am                F
Watching girls go passing by
   G                C
It ain't the latest thing
G        G7            C
I'm just standing in a doorway
G        G7                  C    C G Am
I'm just trying to make some sense

Am                    F
Out of these girls go passing by
    G                  C
The tales they tell of men
G       G7           C
I'm not waiting on a lady
G        G7           C      C G Am
I'm just waiting on a friend

Am                 F
A smile relieves a heart that grieves
G               C
Remember what I said
G       G7           C
I'm not waiting on a lady
G        G7           C     F
I'm just waiting on a friend

[Verse]
Am
Don't need a whore
        F
I don't need no booze
G                   C
Don't need a virgin priest
    G      G7            C
But I need someone I can cry to
G      G7            C    C G Am
I need someone to protect

Am              F
Making love and breaking hearts
G                C
It is a game for youth
    G       G7           C
But I'm not waiting on a lady
G        G7           C     F
I'm just waiting on a friend
