[Intro 1]
[G][C][Em][Bm][C]
[D][Bm][C][Em][Bm][C]
[D][Bm][C][G]

[Verse 1]
Ooh, wrote [G]the
letter in blood red ink
[Bm]To paint the picture,
I was trying to get done with the [C]deed[D]
You get what you give,
an[Bm]d you give [D]nothing less
So I [G]rode to the city waiting on
the [Bm]bus to come and take us
So I [C]guess it doesn't matter,
[G]how you [C]take [D]it
Take it, yeah

[Verse 2]
Wait a [G]real long time,
real [Bm]long time, real long [Em]time
But not [C]forever
Wait a [G]real long time, real [Bm]long time,
real long [Em]time[C]

[Verse 3]
[G]Well I was sitting on a park
bench out in the [Bm]heat
Couldn't get myself to even
look away from my [C]feet
[D]Thinking [Bm]the story's [D]com[Bm] ple[D]te
To get [Bm]two heads,

[Verse 4]
[G]we'll rock,
could all but give
Two [Bm]eyes, full, dark, and gleaming
Here's the [Em]thing
I think the old time I was dream[C]ing[D]

[Verse 5]
Wait a [G]real long time,
real [Bm]long time, real long [Em]time
But not [C]forever
Wait a [G]real long time, real [Bm]long time,
real long [Em]time[C]

[Verse 6]
[G]Take it in your stride, take it [Bm]in your stride,
you don't have to [Em]cry
Take it in your stride,
and [C]you won't have to hide away
[G]Wait a long time, real [Bm]long time,
real long [Em]time
[C][Am]

[Verse 7]
[Em]

[Interlude 1]
I still think we're all OK
[Am][D][Bm][G]

[Verse 8]
[G]How come what you [Em]want
and what you get
Always [C]seem to be two dif[D]ferent [Bm]things?
[D]

[Interlude 2]
[G][Bm][Em][C][G][Bm][Em]
[C]

[Verse 9]
Wait a [G]real long time,
real [Bm]long time, real long [Em]time
Not [C]forever
Wait a [G]real long time, real [Bm]long time,
real long [Em]time[C][Em][Bm][C]
