F                       C
You're sitting in your seat
               F                     C
And then you stand and clutch your breast
     F      Am        Dm    G             C
Our music drives you wild along with the rest
     G#                    D#
You watch me singing this song
G#                        D#
You see what my mouth can do
         A#                      F   C            G
And you wish you were the one I was doing it to
         G#                 D#
And you watch me playing guitar
         G#                      D#
And you feel what my fingers can do
         A#               F          C            G
And you wish you were the one I was doing it to
Well, listen

Chorus:
G#      C   Fm        D#
You've got great expectations
G#      C   Fm        D#
You've got great expectations

You're dying to be seen
And you wave and call my name
But in the din it seems that I'm a million miles away
You watch me beating my drum
And you know what my hands can do
And you wish you were the one I was doing it to
Well, listen!

Chorus:
You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations

Then you feel these eyes from the stage
And you see me staring at you
And you hear between the lines
My voice is calling to you
Well, listen!

Chorus:
You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations

You've got great expectations
(Do you want to play the role)
You've got great expectations
(You'd even sell me your soul)
You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations
You've got great expectations
(Do you want to play the role)
You've got great expectations
(You'd even sell me your soul)
You've got great expectations
(As long as you can play the role)
You've got great expectations
