Standard (EADGBE)
Standing in the airport I am waiting for a plane
Going east to London want to be back there again
It's the right time of year all the leaves are on the ground
But I really only want to get to you
Sitting by the window watching ocean going by
Soon I should be with you but how fast can this thing fly
Day hours seem like an eternity
All the time it took me trying to get to you
That's a little better that's a little better
That's a little better
Standing in the airport I am getting off a plane
Glad to be in London even though it's pouring rain
It's a bright sunny day when I see you run my way
But it took me twenty years to get to you
It's a bright sunny day when I see you run my way
But it took me twenty years to get to you
That's a little better that's a little better
That's a little better

The Byrds Wait And See written by David Crosby
Watch put what you say don't get in my way
I'm gonna get that girl wait and see
I saw her today she came by my way
I'm gonna win her love wait and see
And together we'll go walking in the evening there'll be talking
She's the kind of girl you never hardly see
Have you seen her eyes do you realize
How much love like that can mean to me
I know she knows me today I could see
The way she held her head when she walked by
And before the night is over I think I'm gonna love her
And if it lasts forever I don't care
Now that she is mine I told you all the time
How could I let a girl like that go by
And before the night is over I think I'm gonna love her
And if it lasts forever I don't care
The Byrds I Knew I'd Want You written by Gene Clark
I'd like to love you with all of my heart
You've had me on your trip right from the start
And when you looked at me with love in your eyes
I knew I'd want you oh yeah
I'd like to hold you if you want me to
I've found something new girl just by looking at you
And it's in your smile and it's in the way
I knew I'd want you oh yeah
I meet so many people I feel I don't know
But I felt so close to you when you said hello
I'd like to love you with all of my heart
You've had me on your trip right from the start
And when you looked at me with love in your eyes
I knew I'd want you oh yeah
