only stop and still I'm waiting

Repeat until 2nd 'we may still get by', then do the intro twice. Then keep going

until 'we may still get by' again. There's only four fingerings, listen to the

song and feel it out.

Here's the rest of the lyrics where the beginning of the line is the beginning

of each fingering.

traveled on the f train down the

people press and crowd they start to

fade like footprints worn away

only stop and still i'm waiting

a thousand faces look the same

everyone a thousand different

names they come on two by two

people fade as people do

came here of my own volition

could be my decision

could be

we may still get by

we may still get by

wandered down on avenue a the

coffee shops the sweet cache of

thoughts and words and laughter gone

never ending stream of what you've

known so long and long ignored don't

think so hard just smoke your cigarette

and fade off into blue cause

people fade as people always do

consequence comes crashing in the

scars and scrapes and scratches all the

memories died so long ago

time is up but still i'm waiting

came here of my own volition

could be indecision could be

we may still get by

we may still get by

*It sounds almost right. It's just my version of it. Minor differences really, but it sounds just as good.

*great song btw. - Derek

* If any of this is wrong, it's because I'm doing this from memory without a

guitar in front of me.
