I tried to get it as close to her's as possible, but there are some small things I left
because, really, I'm not the best guitar player, and it still sounds almost exactly the
as what she plays.
Intro:
e------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G--------0------------------0-----------------0------------------0-------|
D----0--------0----0----0-------0----0----0-------0----0-----0-------0---|
A------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E--12--12--12--12-----7---7---7---7-----8---8---8---8------3---3---3---3-|
And you play the intro twice, before you sing:
Save my money
For that plane ride
Horn of plenty
Heavy sunlight
Autumn's bounty
Bread and red wine
In a hurry
But there's so much time
Chorus:
e------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G---------0-----------------0-----------------0-----------------0--------|
D-----0-------0----0----0-------0----0----0-------0----0----0-------0----|
A------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E---5---5---5---5-----7---7---7---7-----8---8---8---8-----7---7---7---7--|
I will wait for you
Growing love but like water
Time will always slip through
I will wait for you
But please come soon
(Alternatively, if you wanted to, instead of picking 9 at the end, you could pick 5,
I don't think that's what Maria does, but it sounds like she does.)
Intro part, again.

(Play twice before you begin to sing, again.)
The wind sounds angry
But my coat's kind
Wrapped in blankets
In the daylight
Winter's longing
Somewhere close behind
In a hurry
But there's so much time
Chorus:

I will wait for you

(Pick the last part, the 9, two more times before moving on to the bridge.)

Is it in a plan
Written in your hand
Believe or understand
Something other than
Fear is blinding lights
Squeeze my eyes so tight
Could you make a flower grow
Just to let me know
(I had a lot of trouble trying to figure this out, but what I have sounds good enough
it'll pass pretty closely for what it should sound like. It still sounds good.)
(You might want to play the last bit twice.)
Chorus:
e------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G---------0-----------------0-----------------0-----------------0--------|
D-----0-------0----0----0-------0----0----0-------0----0----0-------0----|
A------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E---5---5---5---5-----7---7---7---7-----8---8---8---8-----7---7---7---7--|
I will wait for you
Growing love but like water
Time will always slip through
I will wait for you
But please come....soon.
(Maria actually sings something a little different in the acoustic version. To really
it, you should go watch the video in the link I give you at the top:
I will wait for you
Growing love, but like water
Time will always slip through.
But if I wait for you...if I wait for you...if I wait...for you.
Baby please...come...soon.)
