TUNING: DADGAD

INTRO D

D
How did I get here? 
            A                 G
Sitting alone on the windowsill 
D
They say I'm going somewhere 
                        A 
but I've got nothing but 
         G
time to kill 
        D
and I'm waiting 
                A                   G
because there's nothing that I can do 
         D   
I'm just waiting
          A          G 
till I've broken through 

It shouldn't be easy 
but they say it's not too hard 
Chase the dreams that keep you from sleeping 
there's no distance too far 
but I'm waiting 
'til my dreams come into view 
I'm still waiting 

A G

D
It feels like wasted time 
                         G  
and it's hard to keep believing
                     A 
in the promises that brought me here tonight 

D
But apathy aside, 
                   G 
The memories we're making 

keep me searching for 
     Bm          A
what I expect to find 
           D
Across the line 

(Same as first verse)

I'm bridging the distance 
One step up the bill with every night 
Got both eyes on the horizon 
and the ribbon's in sight 
It's a long way 
a distant mountain left to climb 
but I know one day 
my stars will align 

(Same as first chorus)
It feels like wasted time 
and it's hard to keep believing 
in the promises that brought me here tonight 
But apathy aside, 
The memories we're making 
keep me searching for 
what I expect to find 
Across the line 

Bm     G
People say
               D
that time will fly
            A 
and I'll be fine
Bm           G 
So while I'm here 
        D
Wasting time
 
The kindest critics keep me believing 
     Bm
that tomorrow,
      A               G
I can race across the line

(Play the bottom three strings 4,5,6, then resume hammering on D) 

(Same as first chorus)
It feels like wasted time 
and it's hard to keep believing 
in the promises that brought me here tonight 
But apathy aside, 
The memories we're making 
keep me searching for 
what I expect to find 
Across the line
