WAIT FOR ME
Album: Leaves on the Pool


Verse 1:
Bb majorBb                   A7A7
 I’ve always had one foot out the door
                   DmDm
 I don’t wanna play this game no more
              FF
 I don’t wanna let you down
       F7F7
 I don’t wanna see you drown

 Bb majorBb                   A7A7
 I’ve always had one hand on your heart
                   DmDm
 The other one pulling us apart
              FF
 I don’t wanna let you go

Chorus:
Bb majorBb
 Why do you wait for me
A minorAm
 And let me hurt you
DmDm
 Why can’t I set you free to someone
FF    F7F7
 Who deserves you
Bb majorBb
 Don’t tell me that you’re fine
A minorAm
 Don’t say it’s worth it
DmDm
 I might spend my whole life
FF
 In search of something perfect


Verse 2:
 Bb majorBb
 Give me all your love, give me all your time
 A7A7                      DmDm
 And I’ll show you how to carefully throw it away for sure

 ‘Till there’s no more
FF             F7F7
 You’ll never get it back no no no no no no

Bb majorBb
 Please don’t ask me how I say nice things
A minorAm
 When I know right now what the future brings
DmDm
 I know damn well that this ain’t my dream
FF          F7F7
 But somehow I still don’t know what it means

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

Chorus:
Bb majorBb
 Why do you wait for me
A minorAm
 And let me hurt you
DmDm
 Why can’t I set you free to someone
FF    F7F7
 Who deserves you
Bb majorBb
 Don’t tell me that you’re fine
A minorAm
 Don’t say it’s worth it
DmDm
 I might spend my whole life
FF
 In search of something perfect


Verse 3:
Bb majorBb
 It ain’t crazy that I want you
A7A7
 But it’s crazy that I got you
DmDm               FF
 Even crazier I take for granted everything
  F7F7
 I used to worship

Bb majorBb
 Now it’s obvious my dreams are yelling out to me
A minorAm
 And I paid a couple shrinks to spell it out for me
DmDm
 There’s no way for this to go without a casualty
FF            F7F7
 I just can’t imagine me ever having apathy for you

Bb majorBb              A minorAm
 Tell me what else I need to know
            DmDm
 I got your unconditional
            FF
 Devoted affection and

 I ain’t learned my lesson yet
