Verse 1:
A
I remember the story
D               A
The story of the little boy
A
The story of the mother's child
D             A
The story?of?all
A
And I remember?the middle of the darkness
D                  A
Reaching out?for a hand to hold
A

Reaching out for anything
       D             A
That'll lead me back home


Chorus:
              A
I'm still here

I'm still waiting for you

After all these years

Verse 2:
A
I remember the shadows
D                    A
On the walls of my memory
A
They move around like reality
        D                 A
In this prison that we've made
A
And I remember the first born sunrise
D                   A
Couldn't stand to open my eyes
A
Like a blind man wandering
       D               A
On the edge of this grave


Chorus:
              A
I'm still here
  D       E              A
I'm still waiting for you
      A
After all these years
D     E         A
After all these years

Verse 3:
Bm  A         D
Campfires and masquerades
A                D
Come and go like cheap parades
             Bm   F#m   A
When nothing's lost and nothing's changed
   A               D
We like it that way
   Bm   F#m        A    D
Our politicians have to lie
         A                    D
Because if they opened up our eyes
     Bm        F#m           A           D
We'd kill them just like the others who tried
           A              D
To pull us out of this cave


Bridge:
      Bm         F#m      A
Maybe that's why we're so shaken
         Bm        F#m      A
When our questions have the courage to
         Bm      F#m      A
Come and drag us from our fiction
          Bm       F#m
Those who fear the grave
      A        E
Never find the truth
    A
But everyday begins at midnight

And if we're ever gonna see the sunrise

Somebody's gotta wake up
           D       A
Before the morning comes


Outro:
                 A      D
Somebody's gotta wake up
      E      A
Gotta wake up
                 A      D
Somebody's gotta wake up
           E          A
Before the morning comes
                 A      D
Somebody's gotta wake up
      E       A
Gotta wake up
                 A      D
Somebody's gotta wake up
           E        A
Before the morning comes
A D       E      A
    Gotta wake up
      A        D
Gotta wake up, wake up
           E       A
Before the morning comes
