[Intro]
G  C  D  G
[Verse 1]
    G
The old maid's waitin' for leap year to come
C
 The crooner's just waitin' to sing
D
 The old cow's standin' by the Bull Durham sign
                              G
Just waitin' for the grass to turn green
[Verse 2]
G
 The bar-fly's waitin' for an easy mark
C
 An' the hitch-hiker's waitin' for a ride
D
 The life-termer's waitin' for a prison break
                                G
The beachcomber's waitin' for a tide
[Verse 3]
G
 Farmer's daughter's waitin' for the salesman
C
 To take her into town
D
 An' the city slicker's waitin' for the country boy
                     G
To lay all his money down
[Verse 4]
G
 You know everything comes to a standstill
C
 Ain't nothin' seems to make a turn
D
 The worm must be waitin' for the early bird
                                        G
I guess the early bird's waitin' on the worm
[Verse 5]
G
 Nobody wants to do nothin'
C
 Just waitin' to get a finger in the pie
D
 Waitin' for a call from a big quiz show
                                 G
Or waitin' on some rich uncle to die
[Verse 6]
G
 Katy, she's waitin' at the garden gate
C
 Moonshiner's waitin' at the still
D
 The gambler's still waitin' for that ace in the hole
                            G
And Jack's still waitin' on Jill
[Verse 7]
G
 Everybody's waitin' for somethin'
C
 Nothin' seems to turn out right
D
 'Cause the night shift's waitin' for mornin'
                                      G
And the burglar's just waitin' on the night
[Verse 8]
G
 The congregation is waitin' for the preacher
C
 The preacher's just waitin' for the groom
D
 And the groom's just waitin' for the June bride
                             G
And the bride's just waitin' for June
[Verse 9]
