Waiting in Bahrain
A Ab7
I try so hard to please you, do what you need
D F
But when I say I want you, you just say its greed
C G
You’ve got me hanging by a chain
F Am
Its just like waiting in Bahrain
I ask what’s on your mind what can I do
You turn around and say what’s it to you
I’m getting tired of that refrain
Don’t leave me waiting in Bahrain
C B7
Just when I think I’m getting close to you
A7 F°
You turn away and do that thing that you do
C G
It may look pretty for a moment or two
F Am
But then your eyes cut through
I to get the lows while you get the highs
I get the skids from a flick of your eyes
Don’t treat me baby with disdain
Don’t leave me waiting in Bahrain
Maybe the worm’ll turn, my time will come
Maybe I’ll whistle and I’ll see you run
Or maybe I’ll just go insane
I can’t take all this waiting in Bahrain
