Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Stayed awake for hours  again last night
 Searching for the reason to keep up the fight
 I've made choices  I don't regret
 I've got problems I don't get
 I didn't want to carry  the heavier load
 You can't always take the middle road
 There comes a time  when you make up your mind
 And the point gets left behind
 Oh, let's wait One  more day for the conversation
One  more day to make  it right.
 Lets, get away from the confrontation
One  more day just buying  time
 For years and years  you can drift alone
 And write another verse to an endless song
 Wait one more day  'til the time is right
 Hoping you both see the light
 I'm not afraid  to sleep alone
 I'm not afraid  to be alone.
 Stayed awake for hours  again last night
 Searching for the reason to keep up the fight
 I've made choices  I don't regret
 I've got problems and problems and problems
 x3)
