  			(intro 4x) F  Em 

(verse 1) 
F        Em          F                Em 
Watching and waiting, for a friend to play with 
F                    C        Cadd4 C Cadd9 C 
Why have I been alone so long 
F       Em           F           Em 
Mole he is burrowing, his way to the sunlight 
F                             C          Cadd4 C Cadd9 C 
He knows there's someone there so strong 

 
     G            F                G 
'Cos here there's lots of room for doing 
    F                    C      D 
The things you've always been denied 
   G        F              G 
So look and gather all you want to 
        F              C        D 
There's no one here to stop you trying 

( C  Am D ) 
( C  G  C ) 

(verse 2) 

Soon you will see me, 'cos I'll be all around you 
But where I come from I can't tell 
Don't be alarmed by my fields and my forests 
They're here for only you to share 

(Chorus) 

F        Em           F              Em 
Watching and waiting, for someone to understand me 
F                    C 
I hope it won't be very long 

F Em (repeat to fade)
