[Intro]
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
[Verse 1]
B Emaj7
Childhood dreams, make believe
B Emaj7
Nothings gonna break your heart
B Emaj7
Those who wait soon discover
B Emaj7
Everything falls apart
B Emaj7
Baby I was so naive
B Emaj7
Thinking I could brave the cold
B Emaj7
Just get me out of here
B Emaj7
Before we both turn too old
[Chorus]
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
[Verse 2]
B Emaj7
Please don't take that part of me
B Emaj7
I never wanted to give away
B Emaj7
Run me through the things we do
B Emaj7
I just need a reason to stay
B Emaj7
Far away to a vacant room
B Emaj7
Where I can still see the shore
B Emaj7
Close my eyes to a candle burning
B Emaj7
Knowing you will lock the door
[Chorus]
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
B Emaj7
Don't disappear, don't leave me here
B Emaj7
Waiting for the curtains to fall
B Emaj7
Show me how you need me now
B Emaj7
And nothing else matters at all
B Emaj7
We've been down this road so long
B Emaj7
Hangin' on a twisted turn
B Emaj7
We should be the first ones to know
B Emaj7
We're never too old to learn
[Chorus]
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
B Emaj7 B Emaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
