More songs by The Beatles


This file is part of a collection that (moreso than the rest of the site) are not meant to be detailed or accurate transcriptions of the original recordings. They're just some simple chord charts that I made for my own use, some of them my own arrangements.

INTRO:  Em    B     Em     B  B7

E                           G#m/D#
All my little plans and schemes
C#m                         B+
Lost like some forgotten dreams

F#m  B                 E   E9 A    E   E9 A
       Was waiting for you

E                              G#m/D#
Just like little girls and boys
C#m                         B+
Playing with their little toys
A
Seems like all they really were doing
F#m  B                 E   E9 A    E   E9 A
       Was waiting for love

        BRIDGE:

            CHORUS:

Exactly where my life will go
A
Seems that all I really was doing
F#m  B                 E   E9 A    E   E9 A

Thought I'd been in love before

But in my heart I wanted more
A
Seems like all I really was doing
F#m  B                 E   E9 A    E   E9 A
       Was waiting for you
