[Intro]
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
[Verse 1]
E Amaj7
Childhood dreams, make believe
E Amaj7
Nothings gonna break your heart
E Amaj7
Those who wait soon discover
E Amaj7
Everything falls apart
E Amaj7
Baby I was so naive
E Amaj7
Thinking I could brave the cold
E Amaj7
Just get me out of here
E Amaj7
Before we both turn too old
[Chorus]
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
[Verse 2]
E Amaj7
Please don't take that part of me
E Amaj7
I never wanted to give away
E Amaj7
Run me through the things we do
E Amaj7
I just need a reason to stay
E Amaj7
Far away to a vacant room
E Amaj7
Where I can still see the shore
E Amaj7
Close my eyes to a candle burning
E Amaj7
Knowing you will lock the door
[Chorus]
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
E Amaj7
Don't disappear, don't leave me here
E Amaj7
Waiting for the curtains to fall
E Amaj7
Show me how you need me now
E Amaj7
And nothing else matters at all
E Amaj7
We've been down this road so long
E Amaj7
Hangin' on a twisted turn
E Amaj7
We should be the first ones to know
E Amaj7
We're never too old to learn
[Chorus]
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
E Amaj7 E Amaj7
Tell me why, (in the waiting) why's it gotta take so long
