Drop D5
E5
Old man sits at his desk
One year from retirement,
G5
And he's up for review
Not quite sure what to do
D5
Each passing year
The workload grows
E5 D5 G5 G5 E5
I'm always wishing, I'm always wishing too late
E5
For things to come my way
D5 G5 G5 E5 A5
It always ends up the same
E5 D5 G5 E5
I must be missing, I must be missing the point
E5 D5 G5 G5 E5 A5
Your signal fades away and all I'm left with is noise
G5 E5
So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again tonight
G5 E5
There's so much to dream about, there must be more to my life
E5
Poor little tin man still swinging his axe,
G5 D5
Even though his joints are clogged with rust
E5 D5
My youth is slipping, my youth is slipping away
E5 D5 G5
Safe in monotony, (so safe), day after day
E5 D5 G5 G5 E5
My youth is slipping, my youth is slipping away
E5 D5 G5 G5 E5 A5
Cold wind blows off the lake, and I know for sure that it's too late
G5 E5
So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again tonight
G5 E5
There's so much to dream about, there must be more to my life
G5 E5
So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again tonight
G5 E5
There's so much to dream about, there must be more to my life
G5 E5
Between the light and shallow waves is where I'm going to die
G5 A5 E5
So, wait up for me (x3)
