Common Man chords by Caamp

Intro:
G

Verse 1:

    G  C    G    D
Common man, six foot tall he stands

C              G        D
Waiting on his date for some company party in France

     G     C        G      D
And she’s late, the boss man said “a quarter till eight”

    C             G                  D
And as nine rolled around at his watch he’s looking down, the ticking fate.

    C         D          G
Oh the funny thing about love is it makes you wait.

Verse 2:

      G          C      G       D
He wore his good shoes, now he’s walking them home with the homesick blues

    C              G                 D
Feeling like he fucked up, it’s all right he’ll get back up because he chooses to.

    G   C       G       D
His overcoat, speckled with snow he walks alone

   C                 G                 D    C
Just then he turns his head and sees a girl of which they said the poets wrote.

Chorus:

     D          G           Em   C
Don’t hesitate my dear, don’t wait put it all on the line

       D           G         Em   C
I’m a leap of faith my dear, and I’m slipping down your spine

    D           G           Em
I will wait my dear till I’m dead or the end of my time

  C     D      G   C G
Or you let me know you’re mine.

Verse 3:

     G      C       G      D
He went insane; oh the thought of her tortured his brain

   C            G              D
So he retraced his steps so he would not forget where she’d been

      G       C      G    D
But she was gone, just the scent of her lingered on

   C               G             D     C
So he lived all of his days with his head stuck in a maze half stoned

Chorus:

     D          G           Em   C
Don’t hesitate my dear, don’t wait put it all on the line

       D           G         Em   C
I’m a leap of faith my dear, and I’m slipping down your spine

    D           G           Em
I will wait my dear till I’m dead or the end of my time

  C     D      G
Or you let me know you’re mine.

  C     D      G   C G
Or you let me know you’re mine.
