The guitars and chords used are taken from Later With Jools Holland where Paul plays
his Gibson SG with no capo and Steve Cradock plays an acoustic 12-string with capo at 2nd
fret - whether you choose to play with or without a capo depends on your personal preference -
it doesn't make any difference.

Yes he waits for love -

Hanging without a cloud
Hoping to draw a cloud
If he's willing to take a chance -
Come on people make a stance!
From tiny acorns grow -
All kinds of seekers
And where are they meant to go -
But fly away - High away
In the maelstrom
Of indecision
Shine! Believer!
Find the season.
He helped to grow it -
He's the keeper
Hanging wishes -
Up upon our stars
As he waits for love
Yes we wait for love
He's the keeper
Of the lantern
He's the message
In the midnight -
Of your madness
In the backlog of conversations
We never had -
We wait for love
Yes we wait for love.
