Intro
D  G
 
D                          C
Every time I walk into my room,
I see you sitting there,
      G                           Em               A
and I hope that today will be the day, nothing to fear
 
         C              D             G       (F#)   Em
And I've told myself so many times to wait for it to come,
         C             D               G
but if I wait too long, I may forget you
 
Often times I'll analyze and criticize in my mind,
telling friends that this nonsense can't be what they want to hear
 
But at least they have something to say,
My own mind will ring in dull,
That's why if I wait too long, I may forget you
 
                  C    D
It's been such a long time,
  G                 Em
I know it's sad but true, 
       C    D
Such a long time,
           G                Em
Since I've had something to say,
       C    D
Such a long time, 
  G          Em            C            D
I don't even know what I'm even looking for,
C              Em             Am
How can I find what I cannot see?
     C             D              G
If I wait too long, I may forget you
 
(interlude)
 
Lately it seems that I've been thinking 'bout you every day,
But I can't seem to get the courage to open up to you,
And I bet that if I can, things would be better I am sure,
That's why if I wait too long, I may forget you
 
It's been such a long time,
I know it's sad but true,
Such a long time,
Since I've had something to say,
Such a long time,
Now that I've found what's been stuck in my mind,
I promise I will be back real soon
 
If I wait too long, I may forget you
 
(short interlude)
 
It's been such a long time,
I know it's sad but true,
Such a long time,
Since I've had something to say,
Such a long time,
Now that I've found what's been stuck in my mind,
I promise I will be back real soon
 
If I wait too long I may forget you...
