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