No one cares to make statistics over what I speak, so let me change your question a little bit, hoping you won't mind.
The first few words are 'glue-words', i.e. they don't carry their own meaning of

you have to wait until position # 38 (to know), which is not far away from your
guess (to think).
This frequency list is from books; a different permutation would result would from movie scripts, or family talks, or love songs;
