Am          F                  C           G             Am 
How can you sit there in your room like a caged up refugee? 
         C       G        F                            Am 
Barely alive and all worn out with the fake plastic trees. 
          F                C                   G              Am 
Is it the only thing that makes you feel like life has meaning? 
               F              C  G 
The scars are tattooed down your arms. 

       Am                                  G 
All we wait for is everything that used to matter. 
    Am                                      F 
Now all that's left is our hope and battle scars. 
       Am                                  G 
All we wait for is everything that used to matter. 
     Am                               F 
It's too damn hard to watch you fall apart. 

Am           F            C          G                Am 
What are you trying to find driving late with no headlights? 
         F                C                  G 
When you go down that road, you can never go home again. 
Am          F             C                  G 
Can't lie around all day, blood and bone and tooth decay. 
Am              F         C              G 
Cuz  down here, you know, no one ever survives. 

       Am                                  G 
All we wait for is everything that used to matter. 
    Am                                      F 
Now all that's left is our hope and battle scars. 
       Am                                  G 
All we wait for is everything that used to matter. 
     Am                               F 
It's too damn hard to watch you fall apart. 

       Am               Em              F 
It was too damn hard to watch you fall apart. 

        Am          F       C                           G 
And I remember that day the scent crept from under your door. 
     Am                    F              C                 G 
They found you three days later, you were buried under your sheets. 
       Am               F                   C                       G 
It was too damn hard to watch as heaven and hell held you down like anchors, 
         Am             C          G         F 
And your demons finally lulled you back to sleep. 

F     G     Am 
Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh, Joey, you let them get to you. 
F     G     Am 
Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh, how could you be so careless? 
F     G     Am                                   F G 
Ohhh, Ohhh, Ohhh, Can you hear us from where you are? 

       Am                                  G 
All we wait for is everything that used to matter. 
    Am                                      F 
Now all that's left is our hope and battle scars. 
       Am                                  G 
All we wait for is everything that used to matter. 
     Am                               F 
It's too damn hard to watch you fall apart. 

       Am               Em              F 
It was too damn hard to watch you fall apart.
