Am9
Old man sits at his desk
One year from retirement,
C6
And he's up for review
Not quite sure what to do
G5
Each passing year
The workload grows
Am9                 G5          C6/9            C13   Am
I'm always wishing, I'm always wishing too late

Am9
For things to come my way

G5                    C6/9   C13  Am   D5
It always ends up the same

Am9                  G5                   C13    Am
I must be missing, I must be missing the point

Am9                    G5           C6/9           C13   Am   D5
Your signal fades away and all I'm left with is noise

C6                                 Am9
So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again tonight

                    C6                                   Am9
There's so much to dream about, there must be more to my life

Am9
Poor little tin man still swinging his axe,

C6                G5
Even though his joints are clogged with rust

Am9                    G5 
My youth is slipping, my youth is slipping away

Am9                  G5      C6/9
Safe in monotony, (so safe), day after day

Am9                    G5          C6/9      C13   Am
My youth is slipping, my youth is slipping away

Am9                              G5                C6/9            C13 Am  D5
Cold wind blows off the lake, and I know for sure that it's too late

C6                                       Am9
So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again tonight

                    C6                                    Am9
There's so much to dream about, there must be more to my life

C6                                       Am9
So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again tonight

                    C6                                    Am9
There's so much to dream about, there must be more to my life

                  C6                                       Am9
Between the light and shallow waves is where I'm going to die

    C6     D5   Am9
So, wait up for me   (x3)
