        x3

[Verse]
 
I've waited ho

urs for this

I've made myself so sick
   
I wish I'd sta

yed
  
asleep today
 
I never though

t this day wou

ld end
              
I never though

              
t tonight coul

   
d ever be
      
this close to 

me

[Verse 2]

Just try to se

e in the dark

just try to make it work
           
to feel the fe

              
ar before you'

   
re here
  
I make the sha

pes come much 

too close

I pull my eyes out
           
hold my breath

              
 and wait unti

    
l I shake...

[Bridge]
 
But if I had y

our faith
              
then I could m

              
ake it safe an

   
d clean
 
If only I was 

sure
              
that my head o

              
n the door was

   
 a dream

[Instrumental]
(There's a part here with horns but the underliner is the B    G#m  F#  progression)

a trumpet like the recording.)
