No capo.
[Verse 1]
G
If you're willing to wait
B
for the love of your life,
Em G (F)
please wait by the line...
(F)
And you know
B Em
Dismissive prisms rainbow
But my native optimism
isn't broken
G (F)
by the light
[Verse 2]
(F)
The idea of life without company
(F)
Crashed suddenly
B
It crashed through the ceiling on me
Em G (F)
And pinned me to the pine
(F) B
And layer upon layer
Em
Of hope and doubt
G
Will crush bones to oil in time
[Chorus]
E B E F#m E B A
Are you a pusher or are you a puller?
F#m (Em) E B A
I pull the weight towards me
E B E F#m E B A
And I lack the zest of a lemon, looking forward
F#m F#m A E A
Unless I have a woman pushing me
[Verse 3]
G B
B canopy of red-billed quelea
Em G
Passed over the blue
(F)
B five hour flock,
B
Not one dives down,
Em G (F)
To tell you the truth
(F)
As night falls
B
B quelea crawls
Em G (F)
And whispers on his last wing
(F)
"So abundant are we,
B
Left alone I shall be,
Em G
But a waited phone never rings..."
[Chorus]
E B E F#m E B A
Are you a pusher or are you a puller?
F#m (Em) A E A
I pull the weight towards me
E B E F#m E B A
And I lack the zest of a lemon, looking forward
F#m F#m A E A
Unless I have a woman pushing me
E B E F#m E B A
Are you a pusher or are you a puller?
E B E F#m E B A
We could hold hands for 15 minutes in the sauna
E B E F#m E B A
We could hold hands for a pool length underwater
F#m F#m A E A
I can push and pull
Her
[Outro]
G
If you're willing to wait
B
for the love of your life,
Em G
please wait by the line...
End on F
