[Verse 1]
[D](Ha[G]rle[D]y
Allen)

[Verse 2]
He should have been out playin' But [F#m]he
sat on his front step
All [G]day he's just been there waiting
And [Asus4]nobody's showed up yet
[D]His dad said he'd come get him
Bright and [F#m]early Sunday morn
But his mo[G]m knows he's forgotten
Like he [Asus4]has since he was born,
but. . .

[Verse 3]
He's still [D]waiting, he's still [F#m]waiting
He might [G]be around [Em]the corner
[D]Or jus[G]t right dow[D]n the street
[Em]He's still waiti[D]ng, he's still waiti[F#m]ng
[G]He tells his mo[D]m, " don't [Em]worry,
[D]thi[G]s time he'll come get[D] me"
[Em]He's still waiti[G]ng[D][E][Em]

[Verse 4]
[D]Group home in Kentucky
She's been [F#m]there for a while
[G]They tell her that she's lucky
She's [Asus4]such a pretty child
Some[D]body's gonna take you
[F#m]And raise you as their own
She [G]never knew her parents
And she's [Asus4]never had a home, but

[Verse 5]
She's still [D]waiting, she's still [F#m]waiting
They [G]might be [D]around [Em]the corner
[D]Or jus[G]t right dow[D]n the street
[Em]She's still wait[D]ing, she's still waiti[F#m]ng
She [G]tells 'em, [D]"I don't [Em]worry,
[D]som[G]eone will come for[D] me"
[Em]She's still wait[G]ing[D][E][Em]

[Verse 6]
They're chil[D]dren of the needle
The [F#m]bottle and the poor
The [G]sum of broken people
Who can[Asus4]'t go on [D]no mor[Asus4]e
Sad [D]eyes and dirty faces
City [F#m]streets and dirt roads
Their [G]lives are slowly wasting
While [A]everybody knows
[Asus4]They're still

[Verse 7]
[D]waiting, they're still [F#m]waiting
All [G]the little faces [Em]different [D]races
Who [G]don't know [D]what love [Em]is
They're still [D]waiting, they're still [F#m]waiting
All [G]the sons and daughters of
[Em]missing fath[G]ers
Who never mis[D]s their kid[Em]s
They're still [G]waiting, [D]the[E]y'r[Em]e still waiting,[G]
[D]the[E]y'r[Em]e still waiting[D]
