[Verse]
AmPull it out turn it up wChat's your favorite song F
AmThat's mine I've been cryingC to it since I was young F
AmI know there's someone out thereC feeling just like I feelF
I know they're waiting up I knGow they're waiting to heal
AmAnd I've been holding my breatCh
Are you holding your breatFh
For Gtoo many years to count C G
Too many years to countAm F
[Chorus]
AmAnd we waiteCd for Fthe sirenGs that never come
AmAnd we onlyC write by the moonF
EveryG word handwritten
AmAnd to easeC the loss of youthF
And how manyG years I've missed you Am
PagesC plead forgivenFess
EveryG word handwritten
Am C F (x2)
[Verse 2]
AmLet it out let me in tCake a hold of my hand F
AmThere's nothing like another soulC that's been cut up the sameF
AmAnd did you want to drive withCout a word in betweenF
I can understaGnd you need a minute to breatheAm
And to sew up the seamsC after all Fthis defeaGt C
GAll this defeat Am F
[Chorus]
AmAnd we waiteCd for Fthe sirenGs that never come
AmAnd we onlyC write by the moonF
EveryG word handwritten
AmAnd to easeC the loss of youthF
And how manyG years I've missed you Am
PagesC plead forgivenFess
EveryG word handwritten
