verse 1 

C                       E                 
I heard that you've been hanging 'round 
Am                 D7 
Singing your song all over town and 
C E          Am  D7 
You haven't called 
C                           E 
It seems like you've been doing well 
Am 
Even without me 
D7 
Even without me 
C          E 
Don't you know 
      Am 
I'm around 
I'm around

verse 2 

C           
From the winter 
E 
To the spring 
Am                      D7 
The change of seasons meant everything 
C   E             Am     D7 
And I don't even notice anymore 
C                      E                Am 
I can't stop thinking of the last time you whispered in my ear 
D7                  C 
It was my greatest fear 
E               Am              D7 
I can't even remember what you said 


Hook 

(let D7 ring for 2 seconds)   
C E Am D7         C   E 
So, don't keep me waiting 
         F    D 
Keep me waiting 
               C-E-Am-D7 
Cause I'll keep waiting
