G# Fm It's comin' on the end of August G# Fm Another summer's promise almost gone C# And though I heard some wise man say G# That every dog will have his day F# A#m D# He never mentioned that these dog days get so long I don't know when I realized the dream was over Well, there was no particular hour, no given day You know, it didn't go down in flame There was no final scene, no frozen frame I just watched it slowly fade away Chorus: Fm G# And I've been waiting in the weeds A#m C# Waiting for my time to come around again and Fm G# Hope is floating on the breeze A#m C# Carrying my soul high up above the ground and Fm G# I've been keepin' to myself Knowin' A#m C# that the seasons are slowly changing Fm G# Even though you're with somebody else A#m C# He'll never love you like I do I've been biding time with the crows and sparrows While peacocks prance and strut upon the stage If finding love is just a dance Proximity and chance You will excuse me if I skip the masquerade Chorus: And I've been waiting in the weeds Waiting for the dust to settle down along the Back roads running through the fields Lying on the outskirts of this lonesome town Fm G# And I imagine sunlight in your hair A#m You're at the county fair C# You're holding hands and laughing Fm G# And now the ferris wheel has stopped Cm You're swinging on the top G Suspended there with him G# D# And he's the darling of the sheik Cm G The flavor of the week is melting G# D# Down your pretty summer dress G Baby, what a mess you're making Cm B+ I've been stumbling through some dark places D# B+ Now I'm following the plow Cm B+ I know I've fallen out of your good graces A#m D# It's alright now Chorus: And I've been waiting in the weeds Waiting for the summer rain to fall upon the Wild birds scattering the seeds Answering the calling of the tide's eternal tune G# The phases of the moon A#m The chambers of the heart C# The ebb and dart of small gray Fm G# Spiders spinning in the dark A#m C# In spite of all the times the web is torn apart Fm G# And I've been waiting in the weeds A#m C# Waiting for the time to come around again and Hope is floating on the breeze Carrying my soul high up above the ground and I've been keeping to myself Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing Even though you're with somebody else He'll never love you like I do You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#m  Cm  C#  D#  Fm  F#  G  G#  B+  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
