Like a (Bb)flow er
wait ing to bloom,
like a light bulb
in a dark room,
I’m just sit ting here
wait ing for (F)you
to come on home and (Eb)turn me on.
Like the (Bb)de sert
wait ing (Bb7)for the rain,
like a school kid
wait ing for the spring,
I’m just sit ting here
wait ing for (F)you to come on home
and (Eb)turn me on.
In my poor heart
it’s been so dark
since you’ve
been (Bb)gone.
Af ter all,
you’re the one who turns me off;
but you’re the on ly one
who can turn me back on.
My hot fire’s a wait ing for a new tube,
my glass is wait ing
for some fresh ice cubes.
I’m just sit ting here wait ing for you to come on home and turn me (Eb)on,
turn me on.
