capo 1st fret
Am C Em ( or G ) D
the faces all around me they don’t smile they just crack
Am C G ( or Em ) D
waiting for our ship to come but our ships not coming back
Am C Em ( or G ) D
we do our time like pennies in a jar
Am C
what are we saving for
G D
what are we saving for
Am C Em ( or G ) D
there’s a smell of stale fear that’s reeking from our skins .
Am C G ( or Em ) D
the drinking never stops because the drinks absolve our sins
Am C Em ( or G ) D
we sit and grow our roots into the floor
Am C
but what are we waiting for?
G D
but what are we waiting for?
[ chorus : ]
Am C G D
so give me something to believe
Am C G D
cause i Am living just to breathe
Am C
and i need something more
G D
to keep on breathing for
Am C G D
so give me something to believe
Am C Em ( or G ) D
something’s always coming you can hear it in the ground
Am C
it swells into the air
G ( or Em )
with the rising
D
rising sound
Am C Em ( or G ) D
and never comes but shakes the boards and rattles all the doors
Am C
what are we waiting for
G D
what are we waiting for
[ chorus ]
( bassline : A G# G F# – – can play or not )
Am G# ( E pos . barre chord )
i Am hiding from some beast
G D
but the beast was always here
Am G# ( E pos . barre chord )
watching without eyes
G D
because the beast is just my fear
Am C
that i Am just nothing
Em ( G ) D
now its just what i’ve become
Am C
what Am i waiting for
G
its already done
D
oh
