Bb *                 F *
Where do we go from here?
                Bb *     
How do we carry on?
                       F *  C *
I can't get beyond the questions


Bb *                F *
Clambering for the scraps 
                        Bb *
In the shatter of us, collapsed
                    F *    C *      Dm
Cuts me with every could have been


(Pre-Chorus)
Dm *                              Dm
Pain on pain on play, repeating
Dm *                                        Bb
With the backup makeshift life in waiting

(Chorus)
Bb        Gm  C                      Dm    F
Everybody says that time heals everything
F                        Bb     C              Dm
But what of the wretched hollow, the endless in-between?
                             Bb *
Are we just going to wait it out?


                            F *
There's nothing to see here now
                  Bb *
We're turning the around
                               F *  C *       Bb *
We're closed to the Earth 'til further notice


                 F *
Stumbling cliché case 
                   Bb *
Crumpled and puffy faced
                       F *    C *     Dm
Dead in the stare of a thousand miles


Dm *                                       Dm
All I want's only one street level miracle
Dm *                                                        Bb
I'll be a an out and out born again from none more cynical


(Chorus)
Bb        Gm  C                      Dm    F
Everybody says that time heals everything, in the end
F                        Bb     C              Dm
But what of the wretched hollow, the endless in-between?
                             Gm
Are we just going to wait it out?

(Bridge)
             C
And sit here cold
         Bb               Dm              C
But we'll be long gone by then and lackluster
   Dm      Gm         Bb      F
In dust we lay around old magazines
Bb                            C
Fluorescent lighting sets the scene
           F         Bb             
For all we could and should be being
       Gm                   C *
In the one life that we've got



(Chorus)
Bb *      Gm * C *                     Dm    F 
Everybody says that time heals everything
F                        Bb     C              Dm  
But what of the wretched hollow, the endless in-between?
                              C 
Are we just going to wait it out?

     Bb                          C
Sit here , just going to wait it out
          Bb                           C
Sit here cold, just going to sweat it out
    Bb            Dm
Sit here, wait it out
