Fantastic song by an awesome band. I wanted to do this cover for a gig but I couldn't
the chords so I figured I'd draw it up myself and post it online. If you have any
or concerns about it please don't hesitate to e-mail me; nlt0002@auburn.edu
(p.s. the timing for the little riffs are off but the notes are there so you can just
to the song to figure it out.) Thanks to mmathews92 for help on the riff!
Am C
Oh my God
G Em Am C
Tell me this won't last forever
G Em Am C
Tell me that I'm not alone

Tell me this will come together now

Am
Packed my things up just the other day
C
Said my goodbyes to all these things I've saved
F
Out in the driveway we laugh under the moon
G F
Among my friends for now but I'll be leavin' soon
C F
Many days from now I'm sure
C F
I'll be back among your graces
C F
And with you I won't pretend
E
No not at all, Oh

Am
Crack the morning, up and running quick
C
No sleep again last night that's the way it is
F
Out in the open under broken skies
G
I feel every foot step I see everybody's eyes
Am
Oh and this is summer, in another world
C
Far from the driveway and my baby girl
F
Soon come the winter and with it quiet nights
G F
And darker days and darker fights
C F
Many days from now I'm sure
C F
I'll be back among your faces
C F
And with you I won't pretend
E
No not at all
Dm F
Oh, the theater is burnin
C G
Over at midnight but never like this
Dm F
Hot under the fire,
C G
The stars are all falling but never like this
Em F
No, I hope you never see this
Am F
Wait, wait for my love
C G
Don't forget me never let me go
Am F
If you wait, wait for my love
C G
I'll remember never let you go
F
Until I'm fine, fine, fine
F C
Until I'm fine, fine, fine

Am
To be back in my room
C
I have the same dream every night
F
Just me, among my things
G
No one else is there, there's no one left to fight,
F
Just me, among my things
C F
Many nights from now I know
C F
I'll be back among your graces
C F
Until then I'll just pretend
E
That I'm not cold, oh
Am C
Oh my God

Tell me this won't last forever

Tell me that I'm not alone

Tell me this will come together

Wait, wait for my love

Don't forget me never let me down

And just wait, wait for my love

I'll remember every one of you

And just wait, wait for my love

Wait, wait for my love
Am F C G
Wait for my love

Until I'm fine, fine, fine
F C
Until I'm fine, fine, fine

I'll be fine, fine, fine
F C Am
I'll be fine, fine, fine
