Wait For Me

	  		
verse 1 
Bb                                     A7 
 I’ve always had one foot out the door 
                                     Dm 
 I don’t wanna play this game no more 
                            F 
 I don’t wanna let you down 
              F7 
 I don’t wanna see you drown 

 Bb                                     A7 
 I’ve always had one hand on your heart 
                                     Dm 
 The other one pulling us apart 
                            F 
 I don’t wanna let you go 

Bb 
 Why do you wait for me 
Am 
 And let me hurt you 
Dm 
 Why can’t I set you free to someone 
F       F7 
 Who deserves you 
Bb 
 Don’t tell me that you’re fine 
Am 
 Don’t say it’s worth it 
Dm 
 I might spend my whole life 
F 
 In search of something perfect 


verse 2 
 Bb 
  Give me all your love, give me all your time 
 A7                                            Dm 
  And I’ll show you how to carefully throw it away for sure 

 ‘Till there’s no more 
F                         F7 
  You’ll never get it back no no no no no no 

Bb 
 Please don’t ask me how I say nice things 
Am 
 When I know right now what the future brings 
Dm 
 I know damn well that this ain’t my dream 
F                    F7 
 But somehow I still don’t know what it means 

Bb 
 Sitting in the car trying to tell you that you’re wrong 
Am 
 Tell you that you’re crazy but you knew it all along 
Dm 
 I put that on, I never meant to try and put you on 
F 
 How did you stay here so long 

Bb 
 Why do you wait for me 
Am 
 And let me hurt you 
Dm 
 Why can’t I set you free to someone 
F       F7 
 Who deserves you 
Bb 
 Don’t tell me that you’re fine 
Am 
 Don’t say it’s worth it 
Dm 
 I might spend my whole life 
F 
 In search of something perfect 


verse 3 
Bb 
 It ain’t crazy that I want you 
A7 
 But it’s crazy that I got you 
Dm                              F 
 Even crazier I take for granted everything 
    F7 
 I used to worship 

Bb 
 Now it’s obvious my dreams are yelling out to me 
Am 
 And I paid a couple shrinks to spell it out for me 
Dm 
 There’s no way for this to go without a casualty 
F                       F7 
 I just can’t imagine me ever having apathy for you 

Bb                            Am 
 Tell me what else I need to know 
                       Dm 
 I got your unconditional 
                       F 
 Devoted affection and 

 I ain’t learned my lesson yet
