Verse 1:
         A
You keep hanging on for more
                                           C#m  B
building walls around the words around the world
       A
i keep trippping over hints i keep spilling every secret
        C#m                     B
without spilling any secrets at all


Chorus 1:
          E        B          E
don't you know? of course you don't
   A          E         B           C#m  Abm-B
of course you don't the words might choke
A     F#m         E    A            F#m            E
  how long is too long? when you're waiting by the phone


Verse 2:
        A
did the issue go this far?
                                         C#m  B
did you set this high a standard for yourself?
  A
i know it's not our fault but i really have to wonder
         C#m                           B
if you'd ever set the standard without help


(Repeat Chorus 1 except last line)

A     F#m         E    A            F#m            C#m
  how long is too long? when you're waiting by the phone


Bridge:
       B/D#   E   B           A
me up, you win, i must give in
C#m       B/D#     E         B     A   Am
  to each their own with all their sins
         A
you keep hanging on for more
                                               E    B
building walls around the the words around the world


Chorus 2:

don't you know? of course you don't
   A          E         B           C#m  Abm-B
of course you don't the words might choke
E      B     E          A     E        B          C#m  Abm-B
  This small town takes every ounce to build it's moan
A     F#m         E    A            F#m            E(hold)
  how long is too long? when you're waiting by the phone
A             F#m            E(hold)
  When you're waiting by the phone
