Verse 1:

C#m7                Bsus4
    Are you getting tired?
C#m7                  Bsus4 
    I think we&#8217;ve gone and lost the fire
F#7sus4                  Asus2
       But I don&#8217;t wanna fight anymore
F#7sus4                Bsus4   C7M
       I&#8217;ve had enough of this town

I can see the signs
And I can read between the lines
But I don&#8217;t know what we were fighting for
I&#8217;m just trying, to break out

Chorus:

C#m7
   I&#8217;ve been waiting for something
Asus2
    I&#8217;ve been sitting for too long
Bsus4
    I&#8217;ve been waiting but, oh, tonight
     C7M
This one last try goes on and on and on (x2)

Verse 2:

You put your nets out 
But still you chose to do without
The only way to catch the butterfly
Is never waiting for the wings and

As seasons bring change 
And as the seconds fade away
I still don&#8217;t know why we were holding on
But I&#8217;m still trying to break out

Chorus:

I&#8217;ve been waiting for something
I&#8217;ve been sitting for too long
I&#8217;ve been waiting but, oh, tonight
This one last try goes on and on and on (x2)

Bridge:

Asus2         F#7sus4
    Should've known better than to listen
C#m7                E7M
   When the dreams and the words started falling apart
Asus2               F#7sus4
    Should've known I would've hit the ground running

C#m7   Bsus4 F#7sus4

  Asus2       F#7sus4
Did you think that the night would posses us?
C#m7                E7M
Take us over like the rain that&#8217;s falling down?
Asus2          F#7sus4
Did you notice when the clock stopped running?
C#m7   Bsus4 F#7sus4
                Running
C#m7   Bsus4 F#7sus4
                Running
C#m7   Bsus4 F#7sus4
                Running

Asus2

Verse 3:

This is the countdown
You see our time is running out
I tread to stay above the waterline 
but never taking off the weights that

Keep us stuck here
In the comfort, and the fear
I&#8217;ll never know what we were fighting for
but I&#8217;m still looking to break out

Chorus:

I&#8217;ve been waiting for something
I&#8217;ve been sitting for too long
I&#8217;ve been waiting but, oh, tonight
This one last try goes on and on and on (x2)
