[Verse 1]
D Bm D Bm
As I wake up alone, after years of playing musical homes
F#m G
I am not really sure, 'cause it's all such a blur
D A
But I think I'll be home in the fall
D Bm
And as my friends live and breathe
D Bm
It seems they're doing just fine without me
F#m G
'Cause I walk like a ghost without what meant the most to me
D A
Back before I had it all
[Chorus]
G A
And it's minutes to hours and hours to days
D Bm
It's cradles then taxes then caskets then graves
G A
But you've got your own world to burn -
D D
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
[Verse 2]
D Bm
And I was feeling alright
D Bm
It was just me and Jack Daniel's tonight
F#m G
And I appreciated his company the same
D A
It reminded me of Tennessee
[Chorus]
G A
And it's minutes to hours and hours to days
D Bm
It's cradles then taxes then caskets then graves
G A
On these city streets we can't stop for a while
D Bm
We just live out our lives every mile after mile
G A
But you've got your own world to burn -
D D
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
Bm B
Don't wait for me
[Verse 3]
D F#m
I'd fly to your arms if only I can move
D F#m
And I'd find a way through the turbulent sky
D Bm F#m
'Cause I know and you know there's nothing to prove
D A
This distance ain't only in miles
[Chorus]
G A
And it's minutes to hours and hours to days
D Bm
It's cradles then taxes then caskets then graves
G A
On these city streets we can't stop for a while
D Bm
We just live out our lives every mile after mile
G A
But you've got your own world to burn -
D D
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
D D
Don't wait for me, don't wait for me
D Bm
So I guess this is the dream
D A
But no one said it'd be such a machine
