 Em 
Baby, I‘ve been waiting 
D                            Em 
I‘ve been waiting night and day 
 
I didn‘t see the time 
D                 Em 
I waited half my life away 
            D 
There were lots of invitations 
                        Ebdim   B7 
And I know you sent me some 
           Em    D 
But I was waiting 
         C    D           Ebdim          B7     Em 
For the miracle, for the miracle to come 
 
I know you really loved me 
But, you see, my hands were tied 
I know it must have hurt you 
It must have hurt your pride 
To have to stand beneath my window 
With your bugle and your drum 
And me I‘m up there waiting 
For the miracle, for the miracle to come 
 
Ah I don‘t believe you‘d like it 
You wouldn‘t like it here 
There ain‘t no entertainment 
And the judgements are severe 
The Maestro says it‘s Mozart 
But it sounds like bubble gum 
When you‘re waiting 
For the miracle, for the miracle to come 
 
 Am 
Waiting for the miracle 
         Em 
There‘s nothing left to do 
B7 
I haven‘t been this happy 
          Em 
Since the end of World War II 
 
                 Am 
Nothing left to do 
 
When you know that you‘ve been taken 
                 Em 
Nothing left to do 
 
When you‘re begging for a crumb 
                 C 
Nothing left to do 
 
When you‘ve got to go on waiting 
 Ebdim                       B 
Waiting for the miracle to come 
 
Yeah I dreamed about you, baby 
It was just the other night 
Most of you was naked 
Ah but some of you was light 
The sands of time were falling 
From your fingers and your thumb 
And you were waiting 
For the miracle, for the miracle to come 
 
Ah baby, let‘s get married 
We‘ve been alone too long 
Let‘s be alone together 
Let‘s see if we‘re that strong 
Yeah let‘s do something crazy 
Something absolutely wrong 
While we‘re waiting 
For the miracle, for the miracle to come 
 
Nothing left to do 
When you know that you‘ve been taken 
Nothing left to do 
When you‘re begging for a crumb 
Nothing left to do 
When you‘ve got to go on waiting 
Waiting for the miracle to come 
 
When you‘ve fallen on the highway 
And you‘re lying in the rain 
And they ask you how you‘re doing 
Of course you say you can‘t complain 
If you‘re squeezed for information 
That‘s when you‘ve got to play it dumb 
You just say you‘re out there waiting 
For the miracle, for the miracle to come
