Waiting For The Miracle Tab par Leonard Cohen

Em              C       D                          Em  
 Baby, I've been waiting, I've been waiting night and day.
Em               Cmaj7  D                Em           
I didn't see the time, I waited half my life away.
          D                  D                     B7
There were lots of invitations and I know you sent me some,
B7         Em       D       C       D       B7             Em
  but I was waiting - for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
Em                C         D                             Em
 I know you really loved me, but, you see, my hands were tied.
Em               Cmaj7     D                         Em
I know it must have hurt you, it must have hurt your pride
            D                                          B7
to have to stand beneath my window with your bugle and your drum,
    Em      D      C        D                                B7
and me I'm up there waiting for the miracle, for the miracle to come.

Em              C       D                          Em 
Ah I don't believe you'd like it, You wouldn't like it here.
Em               Cmaj7  D                Em   
There ain't no entertainment and the judgements are severe.
          D                  D                     B7
The Maestro says it's Mozart but it sounds like bubble gum
B7         Em       D       C       D       B7             Em
when you're waiting for the miracle, for the miracle to come.

Am                       Em                 
Waiting for the miracle There's nothing left to do.
B7                B7                Em           Em
I haven't been this happy since the end of World War Two.
               Am                                Am
Nothing left to do when you know that you've been taken.
               Em                                Em
Nothing left to do when you're begging for a crumb
               Cmaj7                      Cmaj7
Nothing left to do when you've got to go on waiting
B7                    
waiting for the miracle to come.

Em                 C      D                      Em
I dreamed about you, baby. It was just the other night.
Em             Cmaj7    D                    Em
Most of you was naked Ah but some of you was light.
  D                                                      B7
The sands of time were falling from your fingers and your thumb,
            Em      D      C        D          B7
and you were waiting for the miracle, for the miracle to come

 Em              C         D                     Em
Ah baby, let's get married, we've been alone too long.
      Em         Cmaj7   D                       Em
Let's be alone together. Let's see if we're that strong.
           D                   D                   B7
Yeah let's do something crazy, something absolutely wrong
           Em      D        C        D          B7 
while we're waiting for the miracle, for the miracle to come.

               Am                                Am
Nothing left to do when you know that you've been taken.
               Em                                Em
Nothing left to do when you're begging for a crumb
               Cmaj7                      Cmaj7
Nothing left to do when you've got to go on waiting
B7                    
waiting for the miracle to come.

 Em              C         D                     Em
When you've fallen on the highway and you're lying in the rain,
      Em         Cmaj7   D                                    Em
and they ask you how you're doing, of course, you'll say you can't complain 
           D                   D                            B7
If you're squeezed for information, that's when you've got to play it dumb:
           Em      D        C        D                          B7      Em
You just say you're out there waiting for the miracle, for the miracle to come.
