[Intro]
Bm E F#m E Bm E F#m E
D E F#m E D E F#m

[Verse]
Bm
A man sits at his desk, one year from retirement,
G
And he’s up for review, not quite sure what to do.
E
Each passing year, the workload grows.

[Verse]
Bm D G F#m E
I’m always wishing, I’m always wishing too late
Bm D G F#m E A
For things to go my way, it always ends up the same (Count your blessings)
Bm D G F#m E
I must be missing, I must be missing the point
Bm D G F#m E
Your signal fades away and all I’m left with is noise
A
(Count your blessings on one hand)

[Chorus]
G Bm
So wait up, I’m not sleeping alone again tonight.
G Bm
There’s so much to dream about, there must be more to my life

[Bridge]
Bm E F#m E Bm E F#m E
Poor little tin man,
D E F#m E D E F#m
still swinging his axe, even though his joints are clogged with rust.

[Verse]
Bm D G F#m E
My youth is slipping, my youth is slipping away
Bm D G F#m E A
Safe in monotony, (so safe), day after day (Count your blessings)
Bm D G F#m E
My youth is slipping, my youth is slipping away
Bm D G F#m E
Cold wind blows off the lake, and I know for sure that it’s too late
A
(Count your blessings on one hand)

[Chorus]
G Bm
So wait up, I’m not sleeping alone again tonight.
G Bm
There’s so much to dream about, there must be more to my life

[Interlude]
Bm Bm
Can’t help but feel betrayed, punch the clock every single day
G E E
There’s no loyalty and no remorse.
Bm Bm
Youth sold for a pension cheque, and it makes him fucking sick
G E E
He’s heating up, he can’t say no

Bm G E E
(Whoa-Whoa-oh)
Bm G E E
(Whoa-Whoa-oh)

[Riff]
E F#m E A D

[Chorus]
G Bm
So wait up, I’m not sleeping alone again tonight.
G Bm
There’s so much to dream about, there must be more to my life
G Bm
(So wait up) So wait up, I’m not sleeping alone again tonight.
G Bm Bm
Between the light and shallow waves is where I’m going to die

[Outro]
G A Bm
Wait up for me
G A Bm
Wait up for me
G A Bm
Wait up for me
