Waiting Room - Rex Orange County
Version 2 of 3
- Waiting Room (Chords) (v1)Rating: 4.59 / 5.00
- Waiting Room (Chords) (v3)Rating: 4.55 / 5.00
Tuning: Standard, E A D G B E
This song uses multiple chord voicings for the same chords- I've tried to be as detailed as
possible in showing which shape to play where.
Probably pretty obvious when you listen to the song as well, but the Bmaj7 and C#m7 are plucked
with the bass note alternating between B/A# and C#/C respectively.
There is also a passing note F is played between B/F# and Emaj7 in the [Outro Chorus]
Play with recording for exact picking patterns.

[Verse 1]
Our family r
eunion
I'd rather be
anywhere but h
ere
It's like a pa
in you should
ignore
But my uncle's
here to open
the door and I
don't like hi
m
This family
reunion
I felt so unco
mfortable, I l
eft
They all decid
ed to stay
So it's just m
e and my mista
kes
[Chorus]
And I'd like
to know that
you smile when
you're alone
And when you n
eed time to yo
urself
Remember me, I
#
won't be anyo
ne else
I'm just the b
oy you love
I'm just the boy
[Verse 2]
And my lover,
my best frien
d
When I heard t
hat you don't
know why you'r
e here
I fell face do
wn
And became one
with the grou
nd
And my lover
's best friend
No, he doesn't
know what to
suggest
He does everyt
hing for love
But when his "
everything" ju
st isn't enoug
h
[Chorus]
He'd like to k
#
now that you s
#
mile when you'
re alone, (mh
mh)
And when you n
eed time to yo
urself, (mh mh
)
Remember me, I
won't be anyo
ne else
I'm just the b
oy you love
The boy... you love
[Outro Chorus]
And if it loo
ks like you do
n't love me th
en
That's alright
and I would l
et you be cont

ent
I'm still your
friend
No revenge and
no regrets
No regret
s, no regrets
And if it lo
oks like God m
ight judge me
Then I don't e
ven wanna stay
another day
'Cause if he's
the one, then
who am I?
He calls the s
hots
And he always
decides
What's the poi

nt in living l
ife
Living life...
when it's all
for him...
[Outro]
All for him
