For  so long  I have waited
 For this sense of urgency
 For as long  as I can remember
 I've always  been the type of person  to just  give in
 I want to run  just as fast  I came in
 I want to have  the chance to flee  the scene and to  find peace
 Oh, it’s so hard  to find relief  with this excess  sensitivity
 To the crimes  that have been committed  to others,  not only  me
How  long must I wait, until I’m  at peace again?
 And how  long must I wait, until I  am whole again?
 Oh, how  long must I wait, until I’m  at peace again?
 And how  long must I wait, to see  your face again?
 I've got one foot in the present day and one foot in the grave
 I've got one  foot in the present day and one foot in the grave
 I've got one  foot in the present day and one foot in the grave
 I've got one  foot in the present day and one foot in the grave
 But, it’s your grace  that gives us the second  chances
 That we don't  deserve and that we take  for granted
How  long must I wait, until I’m  at peace again?
 And how  long must I wait, until I  am whole again?
 Oh, how  long must I wait, until I’m  at peace again?
 And how  long must I wait, to see  your  face again?
 To see your face again?  To see your face again?
 To see your face again?

[C]For so [D]long I have [Em]waited
For this sense of urg[C]ency   [D]          [Am]
For as l[C]ong as I can rem[D]ember
I've al[Em]ways been the type of pe[C]rson to j[D]ust give [G]in

I want to [Em]run  [D]   just as [Am]fast I came in
I want to [Em]have the chance to f[D]lee the scene and [C]to find peace
Oh, it’s so h[Em]ard to find rel[D]ief with this e[Am]xcess sensitivity
To the cr[Em]imes that have been comm[D]itted to ot[C]hers, not o[D]nly me

[Em]How long must I wait, until I[C]’m at peace again?
And [Em]how long must I wait, until [C]I am whole a[Am]gain?
Oh, [Em]how long must I wait, until I[C]’m at peace again?
And [Em]how long must I wait, to s[C]ee your face a[Am]gain?
I've got one foot in the present day and one foot in the grave

I've got [Em]one foot in the present day and one foot in the grave
I've got [Em]one foot in the present day and one foot in the grave
I've got o[G]ne foot in the present day and one foot in the grave

But, it’s your g[Am]race that gives us the se[G]cond chances
That we d[Am]on't deserve and that we t[C]ake for granted

[Em]How long must I wait, until I[C]’m at peace again?
And [Em]how long must I wait, until [C]I am whole a[Am]gain?
Oh, [Em]how long must I wait, until I[C]’m at peace again?
And [Em]how long must I wait, to s[C]ee y[Am]our face ag[C]ain?  [Em]
To see your face ag[C]ain?  [Em]    To see your face ag[C]ain?  [Em]
To see your face ag[C]ain?  [Am]
