Aretha Franklin I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me) Lyrics

Intro:
| E ? A | A ? E |
Like a warrior that fights, and wins the battle
I know the taste of victory
Though I went through some nights consumed by the shadows
I was crippled emotionally
Somehow I made it through the heartache
Yes I did, I escaped
I found my way out of the darkness
I kept my faith (I know you did), kept my faith
When the river was deep, I didn't falter
When the mountain was high, I still believed
When the valley was low, it didn't stop me, no no
F#m7 C#m7 F#m7 A A6 ? E
I knew you were waiting, I knew you were waiting for me
With an endless desire I kept on searching
Sure in time our eyes would meet
Like the bridge is on fire
The hurt is over, one touch and you set me free
I don't regret a single moment, no I don't looking hack
When I think of all those disappointments
I just laugh (I know you do), I just laugh
When the river was deep, I didn't falter
When the mountain was high, I still believed
When the valley was low, it didn't stop me
I knew you were waiting, I knew you were waiting for me
So we were drawn together through destiny
I know this love we shared was meant to be
I knew you were waiting, knew you were waiting
F#m7 C#m7 F#m7 A A6 ? E
I knew you were waiting , knew you were waiting for me
