Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Where do we [D]go from here?
How do we [G]carry on?
I can't get bey[D]ond the
questions
[A]

[Verse 2]
[G]
Clambering [D]for the scraps
In the shatter of [Em]us c[D]ollaps[G]ed
That cuts me with every [D]could-
[A]have- [D]been
[Bm][G]

[Verse 3]
Pain on pain on play repeat[Em]ing[Bm]
With the [G]backup,
makeshift life in [A]waiting[D]

[Verse 4]
[D]Everybody [A]say[D]s
[A]Time heals [D]everything[A][D]
[A]But what of the wretched
[D]hol[A]low?[G]
[Em]The [A]endl[D]ess in- between?[Bm]
Are [D]we [A]just going to [D]wait it out[G]?

[Verse 5]
There's [G]nothing to see here [D]now
Turning the sign [G]around
We're closed to the earth
'til [D]fur[A]ther [G]notice

[Verse 6]
[G]A stumbling [D]cliched case
Crumpled [Em]and p[D]uffy f[G]aced
Dead in the stare of a [D]thou
[A]san[D]d miles
[Bm][G]

[Verse 7]
[G]All I want, only one,
street- level [Bm]miracle
[A]I'll be [D]an out[G]- in- out, born- again,
from none more [D]cynical

[Verse 8]
[D]Everybody [A]says[D][A][D]
[A]That time hea[D]ls everything
[A]All in the [D]end
What of the [A]wretched [D]hollow?[A]
The endless [D]in- [A]between?
[D]Are we jus[A]t going to wait it out[Em]?
[Bm]And sit here cold,

[Verse 9]
[D]
[A]we will be long [G]gone by then
[D]In [A]lackluster,
in dust [Bm]we layer on ol[Em]d ma[Bm]gazines,
Fluorescent [D]lighting sets the [A]scene
For all we could [G]an d should be being
[D]In the one[A] life that we've got[Bm]

[Verse 10]
[Em]In[Bm][D][A][G][D][A][Bm]
[Em][Bm][D][A]
[G]the[D] one life t[Em]hat we've got[A]
[D]

[Verse 11]
Everybody [Em]says[G][A]
That time heals [Bm]everything[D]
What of the wretched [G]hollow?[A]
The endless in- [Bm]between?
Are we just [A]going to wait [G]it out?

[Verse 12]
And [Bm]sit here
Just going to wait [G]it out
And sit here [Bm]cold
Just going to sweat it [G]out[Em]
Wait it [D]out
