 DWake up cause the evening's running
 DAway from the hands of the youth
 BmHold fast cause the daylights coming
 GIt'll hit when it dawns on you
 DTake it if it's yours to take
 DGo sleep in the bed that you made
 BmI know its never been easy
 GTo say what you never could Dsay
[Pre-Chorus]
BmYou'll wait Dso long
GDon't wait so Dlong

GI've been counting all the passing dDays
You keep hiding in the back room
