--Capo 2--

G                       Em
Time left scars on his soul
                     C                   D
The dreams that he chased have all gone away
              G
now he sits alone
G                      Em
his past follows him close
              C                D
so much he planned that never began
                  G
now he'll never know

C                                  D
for years he'd been waiting for someone to take him
      G                       Em
and tell him it will all be alright
C                D               G
now he's just waiting around to die

G                Em
Life started to fade
              C                            D
his memory recalls as the tears start to fall
                       G
from the memories not made
      G                  Em
and Love, he knew little of
                 C                    D
but deep in his eyes are memories he hides
                    G
but it's just not enough
C                                  D
for years he'd been waiting for someone to take him
      G                       Em
and tell him it will all be alright
C              D                Em
now he's just waiting around to die
C                                  D
for years he'd been waiting for someone to take him
      G                       Em
and tell him it will all be alright
C                        D       
now he's just waiting around
C                        D
now he's just waiting around
C                        D
now he's just waiting around
    G
to die
