Wait For Me Chords & Lyrics - Misc Soundtrack - Hadestown

[HERMES]

[Em]How to get to H[C]adestown:
[G]You’ll have to take the [D]long way down
Through the[Em] underground, under c[C]over of night
[G]Laying low, staying o[D]ut of sight
There a[Em]in’t no compass, brother, a[C]in’t no map
Just a te[G]lephone wire and the ra[D]ilroad track
[Em]You keep on walking and you [C]don’t look back
’Til you [G]get to the bottoml[D]and

[ORPHEUS]

[Em]Wait for [C]me, I’m [G]comin[D]g
[Em]Wait, I’m[C] coming [G]with [D]you
[Em]Wait for [C]me, I’m c[G]oming[D] too
I’m coming [Em]too

[HERMES]
[Em]The River Styx is h[C]igh and wide
[G]Cinder bricks and r[D]azor wire
[Em]Walls of iron a[C]nd concrete
[G]Hound dogs howling '[D]round the gate
[Em]Them dogs’ll lay down [C]and play dead
If you g[G]ot the bones, if you g[D]ot the bread
But if a[Em]ll you got is your o[C]wn two legs
You b[G]est be glad you g[D]ot ’em

[ORPHEUS and FATES]

[Em]Wait for [C]me, I’m [G]comin[D]g
[Em]Wait, I’m[C] coming [G]with [D]you
[Em]Wait for [C]me, I’m [G]comin[D]g too
I’m coming [Em]too

[HERMES]

[Em]You’re on the lam, you’re [C]on the run
[G]Don’t give your name, you [D]don’t have one
And [Em]don’t look no one [C]in the eye
T[G]his town will try to s[D]uck you dry
They’ll [Em]suck your brain, they’ll s[C]uck your breath
They’ll pl[G]uck the heart right [D]out your chest
They’ll tr[Em]uss you up in your [C]Sunday best
And stu[G]ff your mouth with [D]cotton

[ORPHEUS and COMPANY]

[Em]Wait for [C]me, I’m [G]comin[D]g
[Em]Wait, I’m[C] coming [G]with [D]you
[Em]Wait for [C]me, I’m [G]coming t[D]oo

I’m coming!

[Em]Wait,
[C]Wait,
[G]Wait,
[D]Wait...
