D  Bm7  G  D

[Verse 1]
D
Another day without you
Bm7
Another midnight call
G                           D
Distance ain't no friend of mine
D
Another lonesome highway
Bm7
Another one of our songs
G                       D
Nothin' gets you off my mind

[Chorus]
      D                  A
But I'm waiting, yeah, I'm waiting
    Bm7
For you to pick up the phone
    G
And tell me that you're
coming home
         D            A
Yeah I'm waiting, I'm waiting
      Bm7
Every minute of every day
G
Just to hear you say
   Bm        A
"I love you until we're
          G
 dead and gone"
      D       Bm7  G  D
So I'm waiting


[Verse 2]
D
And every storm we weather
Bm7
And through every page that's torn
G                             D
I guess missing you takes its time
                            Bm7
And every minute and mile between us
                                G
Keeps me leaning on a prayer to Jesus
Begging for the day
             D
He come back home

How to play Waiting: key, chords and progression

These are Waiting chords by Bailey Zimmerman on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

Waiting by Bailey Zimmerman keeps coming home to D major (two sharps: F♯, C♯). You need 5 chords: D, Bm7, G, A and Bm.

Most of the song cycles through D – Bm7 – G – D (I – vi7 – IV – I in D major). In solfa, that is doh – lah – fah – doh. Get these 4 changes smooth and the rest comes quickly.

Easier on guitar: put a capo on the 7th fret and play the shapes G, Em7, C, D, Em (100% of the chords become easy open shapes, against 60% without a capo). It sounds exactly the same.
