Cause when summer is here, Im still waiting there

Winter is here, and Im still waiting there...

Waiting in Vain by Bob Marley
transcription by John Stewart

Cm                           G#          
I dont want no wait in vein for your love,
I dont want no wait in vein for your love,

Cm                                G#
From the very first time I blessed my eyes on you girl,
My heart said follow through
But I know know that I,m way down on your line
And the waiting feels fine

So don't treat me like a puppet on a string
Cause I know how to do my thing
Don't talk to me, as if you think Im dumb
I want to know when you're gonna come, see

Cm                            G#
I don't want no wait in vein for your love
I don't want no wait in vein for your love
I don't want no wait in vein for your love,

                   Db             C#m                       Bbm
Cause when summer is here, I'm still waiting there
Db           C#m                             Bbm
Winter is here, and I'm still waiting there...

(SOLO OVER VERSE)
Cm                                      G#
It's been three years since I'm knocking on your door
And I still can knock some more
Ooo girl, Ooo girl, is it feasable, I wanna know now
For I to knock some more, you see

In life I know, there's lots of grief
But your love is my relief
Tears in my eyes burn, Tears in my eyes burn
While I'm waiting, while I'm waiting for my turn

Chorus and Fade..


Thanks Bob.......

Video Waiting In Vain

~ Bob Marley ~ Waiting in vain ~
Waiting in Vain is a song written and recorded by reggae musician Bob Marley for his 1977 album Exodus. Released as a single, it hit number twenty-seven in the UK Singles Chart. I can`t believe it didn't rank higher than that on the charts. I love this song!!! Bob was born in the small village of Nine Mile in Saint Ann Parish, Jamaica as Nesta Robert Marley. A Jamaican passport official would later swap his first and middle names. His father, Norval Sinclair Marley, (born in 1895), was a white Jamaican of English descent, who lived in Liverpool. Norval was a Marine officer and captain, as well as a plantation overseer, when he married Cedella Booker, a black Jamaican then eighteen years old. Norval provided financial support for his wife and child, but seldom saw them, as he was often away on trips. In 1955, when Marley was 10 years old, his father died of a heart attack at age 60. Marley suffered racial prejudice as a youth, because of his mixed racial origins, and faced questions about his own racial identity throughout his life. He once reflected: I don't have prejudice against himself. My father was white and my mother was black. Them call me half-caste or whatever. Me don't dip on nobody's side. Me don't dip on the black man's side nor the white man's side. Me dip on God's side, the one who create me and cause me to come from black and white. Marley and his mother moved to Kingston's Trenchtown slum after Norval's death. He was forced to learn self-defense, as he became the target of bullying because of his racial makeup and small stature (5'4" or 163 cm tall). He gained a reputation for his physical strength, which earned him the nickname "Tuff Gong". Marley became friends with Neville "Bunny" Livingston (later known as Bunny Wailer), with whom he started to play music. He left school at the age of 14 and started as an apprentice at a local welder's shop. In his free time, he and Livingston made music with Joe Higgs, a local singer and devout Rastafari who is regarded by many as Marley's mentor. It was at a jam session with Higgs and Livingston that Marley met Peter McIntosh (later known as Peter Tosh), who had similar musical ambitions. In 1962, Marley recorded his first two singles, "Judge Not" and "One Cup of Coffee", with local music producer Leslie Kong. These songs, released on the Beverley's label under the pseudonym of Bobby Martell,attracted little attention. The songs were later re-released on the box set, Songs of Freedom, a posthumous collection of Marley's work.....

Bob Marley - Waiting In Vain
Waiting In Vain I don't wanna wait in vain for your love; I don't wanna wait in vain for your love. From the very first time I rest my eyes on you, girl, My heart says follow t'rough. But I know, now, that I'm way down on your line, But the waitin' feel is fine: So don't treat me like a puppet on a string, 'Cause I know I have to do my thing. Don't talk to me as if you think I'm dumb; I wanna know when you're gonna come - soon. I don't wanna wait in vain for your love; I don't wanna wait in vain for your love; I don't wanna wait in vain for your love, 'Cause if summer is here, I'm still waiting there; Winter is here, And I'm still waiting there. Like I said: It's been three years since I'm knockin' on your door, And I still can knock some more: Ooh girl, ooh girl, is it feasible? I wanna know now, for I to knock some more. Ya see, in life I know there's lots of grief, [ Lyrics found at www.mp3lyrics.org/aGs ] But your love is my relief: Tears in my eyes burn - tears in my eyes burn While I'm waiting - while I'm waiting for my turn, See! I don't wanna wait in vain for your love; I don't wanna wait in vain for your love; I don't wanna wait in vain for your love; I don't wanna wait in vain for your love; I don't wanna wait in vain for your love, oh! I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna - I don't wanna wait in vain. It's me love that you're running from.
