[intro]

G5  D5  A5  E5  A5  B5  C5  (2x)


[verse1]
     G5      D5   A5  E5
Been waiting to find
A5                   D5
you could've been happier given the time
        G5      D5    A5  E5
If he'd make up his mind
           A5            B5               C5
You'd give yourself to anybody  who would cross that line


[chorus]
           C5       D5         E5
And it was never a question
       A5     B5   C5
He was crowing for repair
               C5        D5
You'd give him love and affection
    E5           D5            C5
But you couldn't keep him there

[verse2]
     G5  D5      A5  E5
Get over  regrets
               A5                              D5
While you were sleeping with the angels he was under the bed
         G5     D5              A5  E5
And the more skin   that you shed
                  A5                  B5
The more that the air in your throat will linger
         C5
when you call him your friend


[chorus]
           C5       D5         E5
And it was never a question
       A5     B5   C5
He was crowing for repair
               C5        D5
You'd give him love and affection
    E5           D5            C5
But you couldn't keep him there


[bridge]
E5           F5
Staring at a cold little hand
        C5                D5
Reading fault lines in a shell of a man
         E5            F5
You were waiting for a word from above
C5
Wouldn't you know it
C5
No answer ever did come


[chorus2]
           C5       D5         E5
And it was never a question
         A5      B5   C5
You were crowing for repair
               C5        D5
You'd give him love and affection
    E5           D5            C5
But you couldn't keep him there
