Waiting To Happen

	  		
Intro: E 

               E 
I lie awake at night 
                  C#m 
Listening to you sleeping 
                     A 
I hear the darkness breathe 
                          E 
And the rain against the window 

After all this time 
            C#m 
Cynical and jaded 
                    A 
All the stones are diamonds 
                   E 
All the blues are faded 


F#m             G#m 
Everything I've been through 
A                  B 
All I've seen and heard 
F#m              G#m 
Spend so much of my life 
         A             F#m 
In the spiritual third world 
                             G#m 
But you came and brought the rain here 


A           B          C# C#4 C#m 
 Something waiting to happen 
                       E 
Something learning to fly 
                    C# C#4 C#m 
We can talk without talking 
                  E      
From inside to inside 
                      F#m 
I have waited to feel this 
A                      E 
 For the whole of my life 


                    E 
We took ourselves apart 
                    C#m 
We talked about our faces 
                     A 
You said you didn't like yours 
               E 
I said I disagree 
                      E 
And I keep the pieces separate 
                    C#m 
I clutch them in my coat 
               A 
A jigsaw of an angel 
                    E 
I can do when I feel low 


     F#m           G#m 
From emptiness and dryness 
     A             B 
The famine of our days 
  F#m               G#m 
I watch the heavens open 
A           F#m 
Wash it all away 
                         G#m 
You came and brought the rain here 


A           B          C# C#4 C#m 
 Something waiting to happen 
                       E 
Something learning to fly 
                 C# C#4 C#m 
On the edge of exploding 
                    E 
Something wild and alive 
                     F# 
Something waiting to happen 
                   D 
Any time that you like 
                  F#m       A 
I have waited to feel this 
                    E 
For the whole of my life
