CHORDS + LYRICS: Intro: Main riff 2 times Verse 1: Em Am I didn't come here trying to find forgiveness Em Am I didn't come here looking for a fix Em Am I didn't come here in hopes of seeing Em Am How the un-forsaken get their kicks Pre-chorus: A G It's like a cry for help nobody hears A G Close as you can get but I'm still nowhere near Chorus: B (D-C#) B (D-E) B (D-C#) Now I'm just down here waiting on a sign B (A-B) B (D-C#) I'm running out of time B (D-E) B (D-C#) I'm here waiting on a sign, look Verse 2: Mother's only happy as her saddest child To learn to live without can take a while And it's a long way back to anywhere And it's not too late, oh but it's getting there Pre-chorus: It like a cry for help that nobody hears Close as you can get but I'm still nowhere near Chorus: I'm just here waiting on your sign I'm running out of time I'm waiting, waiting on a sign [Solo on instrumental verse / prechorus / chorus] Verse 3: So you blow a veil of smoke To protect yourself from the joke Look around this room And say, "Man, I don't belong here" So many sides to the truth But only one side to a fact What will we do With what we can't take back? Pre-chorus: Like a cry, like a cry for help that nobody hears Close as you can get but I'm still nowhere near Chorus: I'm just down here waiting on a sign I'm running, I'm running out of time I'm waiting on a sign Oh, I'm waiting on a sign I'm just, got me here waiting on a sign I'm just waiting on a sign I'm just waiting on a sign Just waiting on a sign
