     C                     Em
Well patiently you slipped away from me

     F                         G         Em
It's not alright, you couldn't put up no fight

    C             Em
But patiently the well ran dry.

F
You needed more water,

G
You needed more.
[Chorus]
    C
But patiently,

             Em
You slipped away from me.

Oh, God I want you back.

Oh, God I miss you my friend,

Oh so patiently

C
Patiently,

       Em
I went home that night

      F
And I sat down to write.

      G                 F           C          Dm
But I couldn't think of anything to write that night.

C                      Em
Patiently, you took it all with you.

    F
The sun, the moon, the stars

    G
Are nothin without you.
[Chorus]
    C
But patiently,

            Em
You slipped away

        F
Oh, God we want you back.

           G
Oh, God we miss you our friend,

             Am
Oh so patiently.
[Bridge]
              G
You fell into silence,

                F
I hate all this silence.

             G
It leaves me patient.

         Am                   G
And this patience has breeded such violence.

                   F
Oh I hate all this violence.

           G
Oh, God we miss you our friend,

              C
But so patiently.

C
 I will never forget it,

Em
As long as I live,

F
The feel that went through the bar,

G
 You're not there.

C
Pick up the phone,

     Em
They told me you were gone.

F
I wish I wish I was dreaming,

        G
But I'm wide awake.

        C
When we got to her house,

     Em
Everybody was there.

F                     G
Amazes me how you can bring us all together.

Am        G
Patience, you leave me here.

F                        G
How can you expect me to thrive?

Am              G
Patiently, oh I wait fot you.

F                   G
 There's not life unless you're alive.

Am                  G              F
This patience, this patience, this patience

   G
Is silence.

     Am             G                F
This patience, this silence, oh this silence.

   G                                   C
We love you our friend, wait so patiently.
