Intro: E C#m A E C#m A E

F#m                D         A
I've heard about a great big swindle
  E          B
I read about it in a book
F#m           D       A
The book flew out the window
    E              B
Was later found by thieves and crooks

C#m    
And now
                Am
they're singing hallelujah
Em                 D
I'm wondering just what did they find
F#m       D         A
They say "what's it to ya?"
E         B
Just take a place in line

    F#m
And wait
     C#m
So I wait
  D
I wait
    A
And wait
Asus2         C#m A E
And I...

F#m          D       A
I'm one of a few survivors
E                    B
I'm a drawer labelled "lost and found"
F#m                 D        A
Moon travellers and deep sea divers
E                   B
Whose oxygen supply ran out

C#m                Am
Now maybe if their gods be willing
        Em                          D
They'll give us something, fill our empty cups
F#m             D           A
Sit down in the boat, don't spill it
E                      B            F#m
Or we'll just have to line back up

    C#m
And wait
      D
So we wait
   A
We wait
       F#m
Yes we wait
       C#m
And we wait
       D
And we wait
        A
We will wait
Asus2           C#m A E
'Til we...

Solo (C#m A E x4)

C#m                   A          E
You can hear it in the beat they march to
C#m                        A          E             C#m
And you can feel the earth shake when they start to dance
                    A        E
You can tell by the way they move you
C#m                     A       E
It's not murder, it's an act of faith, baby

F#m        D           A
And as the world moves faster
E              B
Whiplashing us round and round
F#m          D      A
It's quite a slow disaster
E                 B
But people keep on falling down

        F#m      D   A
As they wait
   E        B
We wait
       F#m      D   A
And we wait
   E     B
We wait
       F#m      D   A
And we wait
   E     B
We wait
F#m              D   A
Hallelujah!
E    B           F#m

I can spot your kind a million miles away
C                       G         D
Buckle down boots and a bloodshot gaze

Don't say you'll change after the next time
Am           Em          C           G               D

Hiding at your place up on slack road

You've got an answer for every little thing
C                      G            D
You can't even tell me where you've been

Em7                C                G
My face couldn't make you leave it behind
Am      Em         C            G         D
Maybe 20 years in state will change your mind

C               G        D
I know my love was good enough
C                G           D
I know you would have shed my blood
C                G       D
I know you can't shut me up

I know when you're going down

Outro: Em – C – G – D 
Repeat and end on G

Johnny little rocket star flashing the label's credit card
His name is at the door but no one knew what for
Says he's got a strategy
I'm a test of his sanity
Wire cars and whiskey
Bad debts and dirty laundry 

You can't even make up my mind
One more song the radio won't like 

Reel it in and shut your mouth
Reputations are in doubt
Write a hit so I can talk you up
No one likes a girl who won't sober up 

You can't even make up my mind
One more song radio won't like 

So brush your hair and straighten up
Put down the drink you just got
Johnny little rocket star
Picked up a girl at the bar 

So I keep my sanity
Wire cars and everything
I guess that we are through
The bad advice from you 

You can't even make up my mind
One more song the radio won't like

....endless summer
