[Verse]
          F5                      A5
If you're willing to wait for the love of your life
D5                 F5
Please wait by the line
                      A5              D5
And you know dispersive prisms rainbow
                                            F5
But my native optimism isn't broken by the light
    F5                                F5
The idea of life without company fell suddenly
                       A5
It crashed through the ceiling on me
    D5               F5
And pinned me to the pine
               A5        D5
And layer upon layer of hope and doubt
                           F5
Will crush bones to oil in time
 
[Chorus]
B5   B5   D5     C#5 D5  C#5  G5
Are you a pusher or are you a puller?
  E5       E5     G5   F#5  G5
I pull the weight towards me
    B5   B5    D5   C#5   D5 C#5        G5
And I lack the zest of a lemon, looking forward
  E5   E5       G5     F#5    G5
Unless I have a woman pushing me
 
[Verse]
  F5                    A5
A canopy of red-billed quelea
D5              F5
Passed over the blue
                       A5
A five hour flock, not one dives down
   D5           F5
To tell you the truth
F 5                A5
As night falls, a quelea crawls
    D5                   F5
And whispers on his last wings:
                         A5
So abundant are we, left alone I shall be
    D5                   F5
But a waited phone never rings
 
[Chorus]
B5   B5   D5     C#5 D5  C#5  G5
Are you a pusher or are you a puller?
  E5       E5     G5   F#5  G5
I pull the weight towards me
    B5   B5    D5   C#5   D5 C#5        G5
And I lack the zest of a lemon, looking forward
  E5   E5       G5     F#5    G5
Unless I have a woman pushing me
 
[Chorus]
B5   B5   D5     C#5 D5  C#5  G5
Are you a pusher or are you a puller?
B5       B5   D5       C#5      D5      C#5    G5
We could hold hands for fifteen minutes in the sauna
B5       B5   D5     C#5   D5        C#5    G5
We could hold hands for a pool length under water
E5 E5 G5       F#5
I can push and pull
G5
Her
 
[Outro]
          F5                      A5
If you're willing to wait for the love of your life
D5                 F5
