[Intro] A E Bm F#m Bm A/C# D (x2) [Verse 1]
     A       E    Bm  F#m
Been waiting   to find

Bm                                  E
you could've been happier given the time

        A       E     Bm    F#m
If he'd make up   his mind

           Bm          A/C#               D
You'd give yourself to anybody  who would cross that line
[Chorus]
           D       E         F#m
And it was never a question

       Bm      A/C# D
He was crowing for  repair

               D        E
You'd give him love and affection

    F#m           E       D
But you couldn't keep him there
[Verse 2]
     A  E    Bm   F#m
Get over  regrets

               Bm                              E
While you were sleeping with the angels he was under the bed

         A        E          Bm    F#m
And the more skin   that you shed

                  Bm                  A/C#
The more that the air in your throat will linger

         D
when you call him your friend
[Chorus]
           D       E         F#m
And it was never a question

       Bm     A/C#   D
He was crowing for repair

               D        E
You'd give him love and affection

    F#m           E            D
But you couldn't keep him there
[Bridge]
       F#m        G
Staring at a cold little hand

        D                E
Reading fault lines in a shell of a man

               F#m          G
You were waiting for a word from above

             D
Wouldn't you know it, no answer ever did come
[Chorus]
           D       E         F#m
And it was never a question

         Bm     A/C#   D
You were crowing for repair

               D        E
You'd give him love and affection

    F#m           E            D
But you couldn't keep him there

           D       E         F#m
And it was never a question

         Bm     A/C#   D
You were crowing for repair

               D        E
You'd give him love and affection

    F#m           E            D
But you couldn't keep him there
