D
[Verse 1]
G D
I can't take it no more
D Bm Em
Feels like I've been through the wars
G
And if you aren't the goal
Em D
Then what are you at all?
D
I'm falling slowly
Em Bm
So slowly, no one can see
G
That I'm finding it hard to breathe
Em D
'Cause you'll be the death of me
[Chorus]
Bm A D
And why do we wait for those who are never there?
Bm A D
Why do we suffer for those who never care?
Bm A D Em
Why do I wait, why do I wait for you?
[Verse 2]
G D
And I'm down on my knees
Em Bm
Hoping you'll understand
G
That where I'm going
Em D
I can't come back from that
G D
And raising your voice
G Bm
Well, that won't change a thing now
G
'Cause I've made my choice
Em D
I'm, I'm better off alone
[Chorus]
Bm A D
And why do we wait for those who are never there?
Bm A D
Why do we suffer for those who never care?
Bm A D Em
Why do I wait, why do I wait for you?
Bm A D Em
Why do I wait, why do I wait for you?
[Post-Chorus]
Bm E A
And I'm hoping that I'm wrong
Bm A
And someday, we'll carry on
[Bridge]
Bm
Can't escape it
A
Won't fix it later
G A
Another day to carry on
Bm
We can't escape it
A
We won't fix it later
G A
Just another day
[Chorus]
Bm A D
And why do we wait for those who are never there?
Bm A D
Why do we suffer for those who never care?
Bm A D Em
Why do I wait, why do I wait for you?
Bm A D Em
Why do I wait, why do I
Bm A D Em Em Em D D Em Bm
Why do I wait, why do I wait for you?
