Tom : C
Dm
[Verse]
Dm C G
Cold as it was for a winter’s day
Dm C G
The sun came up ’cause the sky was grey
Am G F
The wolves are back, they’ve come to play
Am G F
I thought I heard your father say
Dm C G
Go down to the tunnel where the devil wants ya
Dm C G
Out to the street where the people hunt ya
Am G F
It hurt more than it was supposed to
Am G Dm
[Chorus]
F Am G
I was waiting for the let go
F Am G
I swore I wouldn’t ’til you said so
F Am G
I put the pieces back together so, thank you or whatever
F Am G
Nothing lasts forever, man, I guess so
F Am G
Waiting for the let go
F Am G
Waiting for the let go
[Verse]
Dm C G
Out of the grey into the woods
Dm C G
I take my chances I know I should
Am G F
When the light comes listen closely
Am G F
Follow my shadow to the old me
Dm C G
Mother of the moon, tell me what to do
Dm C G
Shit is scary, shit is new
Am G F
The tide is calling out for changes
Am G F
Oh, what an ocean of time that we wasted
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Dm F
I had to pay for all of your bad behavior
Am G Dm
But expensive lessons are always the best to know
[Chorus]
F Am G
I'm not waiting for the let go
F Am G
Don't need any of your say so
F Am G
I put the pieces back together so, thank you or whatever
F Am G
Nothing lasts forever, man, I guess so
F Am G
Waiting for the let go
F Am G
Waiting for the let go
[Outro]
[Refrão] (repetir)
