G
Oh, Elijah
C
Don't make me wait
C
Nobody's winning
C                               D
The sharks are swimming in the red

G
Oh, Elijah
C
Don't make me wait
C
While you are sleeping
C                               D
My mind goes creaking down the wall

G
Slow down
G
Dilettante
          A
So I can limp beside you
                    F
I'm following your houndstooth
G
Hang on
       Bm
Street savant
                   A
My bank in my back pocket

                       F
How far you think it'd take us?
G                           Bm               F G F
You're like a party I heard through a wall
G
I'm always watching you through a keyhole
A
But let's not forget
D
Let's not forget
G
Let's not forget
       F       A
Why we crawled here

G
Oh, Elijah
 C
Don't make me wait
 C
I got no patience
C                   D      F G B
For an estrangement anyway

G
Wake up
C      G
Avenue ”C”
                      F
Your hometown is still sleeping
G                           Bm
You're like a party I heard through a wall
A
Invite me
G                        D
I'm always watching you through a keyhole
G
But let's not forget
D
Let's not forget
A
Let's not forget
         F
Where we crawled from

G
Oh, Elijah
C
Don't make me wait
C
What is so pressing
C                          F
That you can't undress me, anyway?
