The wind hit my back, cold as I remember

And caught me off guard, in the middle of December

Sometimes a crowded room, can feel the most alone

Sometimes I wonder why, I wont pick up the phone when

Chorus

This wall is glaring and it's too high for me to climb

I've ran and ran and now there's nothing left behind

I see a picture of a broken man inside

I've tried and tried and now there's nothing left but time

Em7 Cadd9 G Cadd9 <-- single strum these (if you prefer)

And I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you alone

Together we fly tonight

And I leave all of the rest behind

Intro x1

I'll wait for ... you

These hands can feel like there not even mine

A tree and a nail and a cry in the night

Sometimes a little step is the greatest divide

Sometimes I feel your breath right at my side when

Chorus

This wall is glaring and it's too high for me to climb

I've ran and ran and now there's nothing left behind

I see a picture of a broken man inside

I've tried and tried and now there's nothing left but time

And I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you alone

Together we fly tonight

And I leave all of the rest behind... I'll wait for

Here I am at the edge of the road

One hand on the end of the rope

One crack and it breaks alone

Wondering who's gonna take me home

On my knees when you call my bluff

Begging please from the edge of the ruff

And I know when I've had enough, and I know it, and I know it

I see a picture of a broken man inside

I've tried and tried and now there's nothing left but time

And I'll wait for you, I'll wait for you alone

Wait here stay here say you're the only

One I need I know and I'm holding

Together we will fly tonight

And leave all of the rest behind

repeat as many times as you want and fade)

I'll wait for... you

End on G when done!
