Bridge
Every Enight for 3 long wAeeks
Fsharp minor                     B
She roamed the hallways half asleep
and Eas the footsteps fadAe away
 Fsharp minor                     B
n my mind I could swear I could swear I heard her say
Chorus:
DAon't wait Bfor me
 E            Fsharp minor
Got lot to do got lot to be
aAnd in the end maybe iB'll see you there
Then back to the verse chords with distortion
During the bridge and chorus parts, I use open chords,
I'm not sure if the band does it that way, but I like
it better that way.  This is my fisrt posting and probably
