VERSE 1:
E* D*
While you wait for the others
F#m A D A A*
to make it all worthwhile
E* D*
All your useless pretensions
F#m A D A A*
are weighing on my time
E* D*
You could beg for forgiveness
F#m A D A A*
As long as you like
E* D*
Or just wait out the evening
E* Emaj7* B*
And always ask me why
E* Emaj7* B*
Yes you�ll only leave me dry
E
So I�ll ask you kindly to make your way
CHORUS:
D A A* F#m F#m* A A*
D A A* F#m F#m* A A*
And what was there
D A A* F#m F#m* A A*
The perfect glare
D A A* F#m F#m* A A*
We all fall through
VERSE 2:
E* D*
While you wait on the answers
F#m A D A A*
That I�ll pretend to find
E* D*
Keeping up with emotions
F#m A D A A*
Still occupies our time
E* D*
You could hope for substance
F#m A D A A*
As long as you like
E* D*
Or just wait out the evening
E* Emaj7* B*
And always ask me why
E* Emaj7* B*
Yes you�ll always ask me why
E
I�ll ask you kindly to make your way
CHORUS:
D A A* F#m F#m* A A*
D A A* F#m F#m* A A*
And what was left
D A A* F#m F#m* A A*
The perfect glare
D A A* F#m F#m* A A*
We all fall through

And what wasn�t there
