C       Em/C            Am              F

[Verse 1]
C       Em/C           Am              F
There’s a lot of politics, a lot of cruel
C        Em/C           Am              F
There’s always that elephant inside the room
C       Em/C            Am              F
There’s a lot of talking and throwing looks
C        Em/C           Am              F
Not all our bruises are noticeable

C     Em/C      Am      F

[Verse 2]
C     Em/C                      Am              F
There’s always that happiness as they wanna sell you
C     Em/C              Am              F
Look at how they made us look at ourselves
C     Em/C              Am              F
There are many quiet tears and flawless feeds and
C     Em/C              Am              F
There’s a lot of drink-it-away at the parties

[Chorus]
G                       C               F
And I keep on waiting for time to slow down
G                       C               F
And I keep on hoping for love to come around
G                       C               F               G
And I don’t know how to make sense of the things that I feel

C       Em/C            Am              F

[Verse 3]
C       Em/C            Am              F
There are many waiting rooms, lot of bad news
C       Em/C            Am              F
Barely awake as too late comes to soon
C       Em/C            Am                              F
When the ground beneath you is shifting you stand and
C       Em/C            Am                              F
What you took for granted runs like sands out your hands

[Chorus]
G                       C               F
And all that we wish is for time to slow down
G                       C               F
And all that we hope is for love to come around
G                       C               F               C       G
And try to find ways to make sense of things that we feel move

C       Em/C            Am              F x 3

[Verse 4]
C       Em/C            Am              F
There are many lonely nights unrequited love
C       Em/C            Am              F
So many words that just wasn’t enough
C       Em/C            Am              F
There are many walks home to an empty house
C       Em/C            Am              F
Waiting for somebody to chase the darkness out

[Chorus]
G                       C               F
And I keep on waiting for time to slow down
G                       C               F
And I keep on hoping for love to come around
G                       C               F          C    G               C
And I don’t know how to make sense of the things that I feel
