[Intro]
B   B   G#m   G#m 
 
 
[Verse 1]
B
 Never felt alone till the late night
B
 Never knew she was my home till the tears dried
G#m
 Workin' on the karma, but it takes time
                                  G#m
Innocence and sadness was a fine line
E
 Better savour every moment as it flies by
G#m                F#
 Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
E
 Maybe someday you'll be happy for me, oh, I
G#m                F#
 Every minute, boy, steady rhythm joy
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
     E
The reason I stay
         G#m        F#
Wеll, I need you today
         E
Baby, I would bleed in your name
               G#m                   F#
I'm tryin' to be who you need me to bе
 
 
[Chorus]
                        E
I woulda waited for you all night to talk for a minute
                    G#m                      F#
I'll sing into the cold dark night till you listen
                    E
People spend their life heads down, souls hidden
                G#m                  F#
I'm tryin' to be who you need me to be, well
 
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
B
 Never felt alone till the late night
B
 Never knew she was my home till the king cried
G#m
 Lost inside the forest, but it feels fine
                                  G#m
Innocence and sadness in the same night
E
 All the love that just got stolen from your wide eyes
G#m                F#
 Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
E
 Let your tears erode my shoulder like a cliff side
G#m                 F#
 Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm joy
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
     E
The reason I stay
         G#m        F#
Wеll, I need you today
         E
Baby, I would bleed in your name
               G#m                   F#
I'm tryin' to be who you need me to bе
 
 
[Chorus]
                        E
I woulda waited for you all night to talk for a minute
                    G#m                  F#
I'll sing into the cold dark night, you listen
                         E
Some people spend their life heads down, souls hidden
                G#m                  F#
I'm tryin' to be who you need me to be

[Bridge]
G#m     F#             E
 I'd do anything for smiles, I'd move Heaven and Earth
G#m      F#              E
 Nobody told me at the start how heaven can hurt
G#m       F#              E
 I'll be waitin' under streetlight at Bowery and 3rd
G#m          F#           E
 Know I was waitin' on ya, know I was waitin' on ya
G#m        F#                  E
 Darlin', don't spend another second wonderin' what you're worth
G#m     F#             E
 Don't you ever get affected by the ways of this world
G#m        F#               E
 Wouldn't say my soul's protected, but there's somethin' at work
G#m     F#           E
 I was waitin' on ya, know I was waitin' on ya

[Outro]
E
 Better savour every moment as it flies by
G#m                F#
 Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
E
 Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time
G#m                F#
 Every minute, boy, steady rhythm joy
E
 Better savour every moment as it flies by
G#m                F#
 Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
E
 Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time
G#m                 F#
 Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm joy

                  Never felt alone till the late night
Never knew she was my home till the tears dried
Working on the karma, but it takes time
Innocence and sadness was a fine line
Better savour every moment as it flies by
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
Maybe someday you'll be happy for me, oh I
Every minute, boy, steady rhythm joy

The reason I stay, well, I need you today
Baby, I would bleed in your name
I'm trying to be who you need me to be

I would have waited for you all night to talk for a minute
I'll sing into the cold dark night till you listen
People spend their life heads down, souls hidden
I'm trying to be who you need me to be, well

Never felt alone till the late night
Never knew she was my home till the king cried
Lost inside the forest, but it feels fine
Innocence and sadness in the same night
All the love that just got stolen from your wide eyes
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
Let your tears erode my shoulder like a cliffside
Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm joy

The reason I stay, well, I need you today
Baby, I would bleed in your name
I'm trying to be who you need me to be

I would have waited for you all night to talk for a minute
I'll sing into the cold dark night, you listen
Some people spend their life heads down, souls hidden
I'm trying to be who you need me to be

I'd do anything for smiles, I'd move heaven and earth
Nobody told me at the start how heaven can hurt
I'll be waiting under streetlight at Bowery and 3rd
Know I was waiting on ya, know I was waiting on ya
Darling, don't spend another second wondering what you're worth
Don't you ever get affected by the ways of this world
Wouldn't say my soul's protected, but there's something at work
I was waiting on ya, know I was waiting on ya

Better savour every moment as it flies by
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time
Every minute, boy, steady rhythm joy
Better savour every moment as it flies by
Every minute, boy, better live it, boy
Return me safely, turn me homeward at the right time
Heavy minutes, boy, steady rhythm joy
