E                    C#m
Waiting down at the station
            A
I don’t remember
                E
I think it was late then
 C#m                  A
Standing, always so quiet
             E
We’re like elevators
                  A
Filled up with strangers
 
 A                 E
No sound, no Hallelujahs
              C#m                    E
Still I was praying on the train ride home
                     C#m
If I can't get the things I want
                     A
If I can't get the things I want
                  E      C#m A
Just give me what I need

 E                     C#m
Our words fill up the pages
             A
Fill up the days with
               E
Songs for the ages
  C#m                      A
Still those browse and we all speak
                    E
We break down like concrete
                   A
And just make our words cheap

A                   E
I want someone to grow with
             C#m
Songs I can sing to
                  E
And a family to cling to
                         C#m
But if I can't get the things I want
                     A
If I can't get the things I want
                  E      C#m
Just give me what I need
                  A       E
Just give me what I need
