Verse 1
Gadd9 
Em7 
It's coming on the end of August
Gadd9 
Em7 
Another    summer's promise almost gone
Cadd9 
And though I heard    some wise man say
Gadd9 
That every dog      will have his day
F 
He never mentioned that these dog days
Am 
D 
get so long

Verse 2

Gadd9

I don't know when I realized

Em7

the dream was over

Gadd9

Well, there was no particular hour,

Em7

no given day

Cadd9

You know, it didn't go down in flame

Gadd9

There was no final scene, no frozen frame

I just watched it slowly fade away

Chorus 1
Em7 
G 
And I've  been waiting in the weeds
Am7 
C 
Waiting for my time  to come around again and
Em7 
G 
Hope  is floating on the breeze
Am7 
Carrying my soul  high up
C 
above the ground and
Em7 
G 
I've  been keeping to myself
Am7 
C 
Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing
Em7 
G 
Even  though you're with somebody else
Am7 
C 
D 
He'll never love you like  I do

Verse 3
Gadd9 
I've been biding time
Em7 
with the crows and sparrows
Gadd9 
While peacocks prance and strut
Em7 
upon the stage
Cadd9 
If finding love     is just a dance
Gadd9 
Proximity and chance
F 
You will excuse me if I skip
Am 
D 
the masquerade

Chorus 2
Em7 
G 
And I've  been waiting in the weeds
Am7 
C 
Waiting for the dust  to settle down along the
Em7 
G 
Back  roads running through the fields
Am7 
C 
Lying on the outskirts of this lonesome town
Em7 
G 
And I imagine sunlight in your hair
Am7 
You're at the county fair
C 
You're holding hands and laughing
Em7 
G 
And now   the ferris-wheel has stopped
Bm 
You're swinging on the top
F#7 
Suspended there with him
G 
D 
And he's the darling of the chic
Bm 
F#7 
The flavor of the week is melting
G 
D 
Down your pretty summer dress
F#7 
Baby, what a mess  you're making

I've been stumbling through

some dark     places

Now I'm following the plow

I know I've fallen out of your     good graces
Am7 
D 
It's alright now

Chorus 3
Em7 
G 
And I've  been waiting in the weeds
Am7 
C 
Waiting for the summer rain to fall upon the
Em7 
G 
Wild  birds scattering the seeds
Am7 
Answering the calling
C 
Em7 
of the tide's eternal tune
G 
The phases of the moon
Am7 
The chambers of the heart
C 
The egg and dart of small gray
Em7 
G 
Spiders spinning in the dark
Am7 
C 
In spite of all the times the web is torn apart

Chorus 4
Em7 
G 
And I've  been waiting in the weeds

above the ground and

I've  been keeping to myself
Am7

Knowing that the seasons are slowly changing
Em7 
G 
Even  though you're with somebody else
Am7

He'll never love you like  I do
