Intro:
C majorC
Verse 1:
FF C majorC
I was mothered like an orchid tethered to eternal sights
FF C majorC
I hurried home in orbit close to where I know I'm fine
FF A minorAm
No edge of the seat, no arms ever broken, you see
Chorus:
A minorAm
I waited for the crash to come
C majorC
Too many days with too little to do
A minorAm
I waited but nothing came at all
C majorC
So many days spent in empty rooms
FF C majorC
Verse 2:
FF C majorC
The little drum inside behaves itself until you turn 25
FF C majorC
And then it strikes this all we've lived this long and only ever half alive
Chorus:
A minorAm
I waited for the crash to come
C majorC
Too many days with too little to do
A minorAm
I waited but nothing came at all
C majorC
So many days spent in empty rooms
A minorAm
It's too late for a wasted youth
C majorC
All quiet on the Eastern Front and we dare not move
A minorAm
It's too late to wage a war
C majorC
It's all quiet on the Eastern Front and we all are bored
A minorAm C majorC A minorAm C majorC
