[Verse 1]
D                 A
I've been running out of
      G
My 70 excuses
                         Bm
There comes a point when patience
      A               D
Can't take all these abuses
                    A
Now my reserves are empty
                    G
I'm feeling kind of low
Because when do you fight for 
Bm
someone
    A                   Em
And when do you let 'em go
                G                  
The other day I thought I saw you 
        Em
on a magazine
                      Bm        
Your stubborn nose pretending to 
   A             D
belong to the machine

[Chorus]
D                 A              
I've been waiting for you to come
         G
 to your senses
                Bm           A    
Holding up your heavy heart, down 
             D
there in the trenches
                  A                
You don't have to carry that weight
            G
 all by yourself
             Bm        A           
Even you the mercenary could use a 
D
little help
                A        
You've got your gun, your 
             G
bulletproof pride
          Bm                A     
You never run, but you sure know 
      D
how to hide
D      A         G        Bm  A   D
 Oh-oh-oh  Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oooh

[Verse 2]
D                     A
My friend said he had seen you
           G
At a movie theatre
                           Bm
You looked just as you had always
       A            D
Didn't ask about me either
                          A
I won't say life ends without you
                    G
But you're the only answer
                  Bm
You got me like a thief
    A              Em
You got me with my hands up
                G                  
The other day I thought I saw you 
        Em
on a magazine
                      Bm        
Your stubborn nose pretending to 
   A             D
belong to the machine

[Chorus]
D                 A              
I've been waiting for you to come
         G
 to your senses
                Bm           A    
Holding up your heavy heart, down 
             D
there in the trenches
                  A                
You don't have to carry that weight
            G
 all by yourself
             Bm        A           
Even you the mercenary could use a 
D

                A        
You've got your gun, your

bulletproof pride

      D
how to hide
D      A         G        Bm   A
 Oh-oh-oh  Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oooh

[Bridge]
A     G                  A
Yeah,    say  something now
    Bm    A      Em
Yeah,    be safe now
Em                     G
 Your wish  is         falling      
  before    you
            (There's a faith, 
there's a faith in my heart)
       D
   The stars      are       
frustrating
(going days won't stop, when I feel 
that I'm still)
       A
You'll always     win    the       
waiting
(in the beat of your soul, when you 
talk, when you write)

         G
When you weave and you flow
        G
And you leave and you stay
     A
Only waiting is left
                               D
Now I'm kneeling around in the cold

[Chorus]
D                 A              
I've been waiting for you to come
         G
 to your senses
                Bm           A    
Holding up your heavy heart, down 
             D
there in the trenches
                  A                
You don't have to carry that weight
            G
 all by yourself
             Bm        A           
Even you the mercenary could use a 
D
little help
                A        
You've got your gun, your 
             G
bulletproof pride
          Bm                A     
You never run, but you sure know 
      D
how to hide
D      A         G        Bm  A   D
 Oh-oh-oh  Oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oooh
