Agreed. Great chords, but the lyrics are way, way off. Thanks for submitting, though!

As above. Thanks for the chords! I think what follows is correct on chords and words. (I just took the chords above and corrected the lyrics.) But some of the placements are not right. In this version, the chords are written in Bm for a capo at I since this is so much easier to play on guitar. Are You the One I?ve Been Waiting For? Nick Cave Capo I Intro: Bm Em/B Bm Em/B Bm D I felt you coming, girl, as you drew near. G9 D I knew you'd find me 'cause I longed you here. G9 D You're my destiny. Is this how you'll appear, C wrapped in a coat with tears in your eyes? A Well, take that coat, babe, and throw it on the floor. Em D C G9 Bm Are you the one that I've been waiting for? Bm D As you've been moving surely toward me, G2 D My soul has comforted and assured me G2 D Well, that in time, my heart, it will reward me C that all will be revealed. A So I've sat and I've watched an ice age thaw. Em D C G9 Bm Are you the one that I've been waiting for? Bm D Out of sorrow entire worlds have been built G9 D out of longing great wonders have been willed G9 D They're only little tears, darling, let them spill C and lay your head upon my shoulder.
