Intro 
C - Am G11   x4 


Verse 
      C              Am             G11         C - Am G11 
I was doing alright, layin' in and layin' low 
      C                   Am            G11                 C             Am G11 
I was wasting my night, calling in my favorite songs on the local radio 
      C                       Am       G11                C - Am G11 
I was standing in the window, staring down to the street 
               C                          Am                 G11                 C - Am G11 
Just when the lightening flashed and the thunder rolled, the telephone rings 

 
Am               G11                       C     
I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain 
        Am                      G11             C     
and the rain keep coming but it ain't cover the pain 


Verse 
          C                       Am          G11               C       Am G11 
And i've always been a fool for a conversation and a couple of smokes 
           C                       Am                           G11         C       Am G11 
Yeah, when I'm feeling this blue i need just someone someone to laugh at my jokes 


 
Am               G11                       C      
I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain 
        Am                       G11                   C    
And its early evening so there's hope for a better day 


Break 
C - Am G11 x 4 


Bridge 
Am         G11      
     Now I know its getting late 
Am                            G11 
     Its Friday night and the crowds are starting to fade away  
Am                        G11 
     i know I shouldnt be here but I keep thinking any second she'll be coming 'round the corner

And I should be in my room, and i should learn how to forget 
         C                 Am         G11                C - Am G11 
Well she may be pretty someday ill be sick of her shit 



Am               G11                       C     
I'm waiting for Christchurch woman in the rain
