 Intro:
 I´m too lazy to write down the strumming pattern, so just   listen to 
the
 record. Just strum the chords below.

  G   D  Cadd9 F  Open strings
 -3- -2-  -3- -1-  -0-
 -3- -3-  -3- -1-  -0-
 -0- -2-  -0- -2-  -0-   Just repeat this through out the verse.
 -0- -0-  -2- -3-  -0-
 -2- -X-  -2- -3-  -0-
 -3- -X-  -X- -1-  -0-

G                       D
So your standing on a ledge, 
                          Cadd9
It looks like you might fall. So far down, 
F                                G
Or maybe you were thinking about jumping. 
                       D
Now you could have it all, 
                          Cadd9
If you learned a little patience! 
                     F
For though I cannot fly, 
                      G
I'm not content to crawl!... 
                      D
So give me a little credit, 
                      Cadd9
Have in me a little faith! 
                        F
I want to be with you forever, 
                        G
If tomorrow's not too late!... 
G          D                               Cadd9
But it's always too late when you've got nothing 
      G/D
So you say!...  --3------3-
                --3------3-
                --0------0-
                --2------2-
                --2--0h2-3-
                --X------X-

 G/D            D                         Cadd9
But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow, 
                       G/D
Before the sun rises today... 
 
 Chorus:

 G
If I am! 
 D                              Cadd9
Another waste of everything you dreamed of, 
                G/D
I will let you down... 
 G
If I am! 
 D                        Cadd9
Only here to watch as you suffer, 
                G/D
I will let you down... 

So your walking on the edge, 
And you wait your turn to fall. 
But you're so far gone, 
That you don't see the hands upheld to catch you. 
And you could find the fault, 
In the heart that you've been handed! 
But though you cannot fly, 
You're not content to crawl!... 

But it's always too late when you've got nothing 
So you say!... 
But you should never let the sun set on tomorrow, 
Before the sun rises....

If I am! 
Another waste of everything you hoped for, 
I will let you down... 
If I am! 
Only here to watch you as you suffer, 
I will let you down... 

 Bridge:

 Once again I´m to lazy to write out the strumming pattern but just use 
these
 chords andlisten to the record and you will get it right.

  D  Dsus4    Cadd9 G/D
 -2---3---2---3---3---3-
 -3---3---3---3---3---3-
 -2---2---2---2---0---0-
 -0---0---0---0---2---2-
 -X---X---X---X---2---3-
 -X---X---X---X---X---X-

So you're standing on a ledge, 
It looks like you might fall... 

If I am! 
Another waste of everything you dreamed of, 
I will let you down... 
If I am! 
Only here to as watch you suffer, 
I will let you down... 

The answers we find, 
Are never what we had in mind. 
So we make it up as we go along... 
I won't mention tomorrow. 
And we won't make those promises that we can't keep... 
I will never leave you! 
I will never let you down! 
I will never leave you! 
I will never let you down! 

That´s it! I hope this will help you out?
