[Intro]
E A E A
[Verse 1]
E A
I had a dream of you and I
E A
Carried on waves of happiness
E A
Opened my eyes and we're hanging on tight
F#m A
To a sinking ship and I'm losing grip
E A
Living on different frequencies
E A
And I see you less frequently
E A
Time after time we just pass in the night
F#m
We're a sinking ship
A
You can't let go of it
[Chorus]
E A
So I'll wait, wait a little longer
E A
Yeah, I'll wait with the bruises and scars
C#m A
And I'll wait 'til you're a little stronger
F#m A
'Cause together, together
E A E A
Is tearing us apart
N.C.
^^ Between the last two lines of the chorus is a small progression from F#m -> A -> progression -> E
I find it sounds good to play some variation of A -> C#m -> G#m -> A -> B -> E.
[Verse 2]
E A
And she said, "Look at those cracks, won't you fix them up?"
E A
And, "You did this to us, don't you dare give up"
E
And though, my arms are open
A
My heart is shut tight
F#m
But I can't disconnect
A
When I wanna protect you
[Chorus]
E A
So I'll wait, wait a little longer
E A
Yeah, I'll wait with the bruises and scars
C#m A
And I'll wait 'til you're a little stronger
F#m A
'Cause together, together
[Bridge]
C#m
We're not living our lives
Are we living a lie?
C#m/B#
Are we just treading water?
All caught up in the tide
C#m/B C#m/A#
If we're gonna survive, gotta sever the ties, oh no
A
But until then
[Chorus]
E A
I will wait, wait a little longer
E A
And I'll wait with the bruises and scars
C#m A
And I'll wait 'til you're a little stronger
F#m A
'Cause together, together
E A
I will wait, wait a little longer
E A
And I'll wait with the bruises and scars
C#m A
And I'll wait 'til you're a little stronger
F#m A
'Cause together, together
F#m A
'Cause together, together
E
Is tearing us apart
