Intro:
Bb     C           Dm
For so long I have waited
                  Bb - C - Dm
For this sense of urgency
       Bb              C
For as long as I can remember
     Dm        C
I've always been the type
   Bb        C         F
Of person to just give in



Verse 1:
          Dm - C      Gm
I want to run just as fast I came in
          Dm
I want to have the chance
   C
To flee the scene
    Bb
And to find peace
            Dm             C
Oh, it’s so hard to find relief
          Gm
For this excess sensitivity
       Dm
To the crimes that have been
  C               Bb          C
Committed against others, not only me



Chorus:
Dm
How long must I wait
      Bb
Until I’m at peace again?
    Dm
And how long must I wait
      Bb   C
Until I am whole again?
    Dm
And how long must I wait
      Bb
Until I am at peace again?
    Dm
And how long must I wait
   Bb       C
To see your face again?



Bridge:
         Dm
I've got one foot in the present day

And one foot in the grave
Dm
One foot in the present day

And one foot in the grave
F
One foot in the present day

And one foot in the grave



Verse 2:
               Bb
But, it’s your grace that gives us
    F                      Bb
The second chances that we don't deserve
            Gm
And that we take for granted
     C         Bb
But, it’s your grace that gives us
    F                      Bb
The second chances that we don't deserve
            Gm
And that we take for granted



Chorus:
Dm
And how long must I wait
      Bb
Until I’m at peace again?
    Dm
And how long must I wait
    Bb   C
Til I am whole again?
    Dm
And how long must I wait
      Bb
Until I’m at peace again?
    Dm
And how long must I wait



Outro:
   Bb       C     Bb - Dm
To see your face again?
                  Bb - Dm      
To see your face again
                  Bb - Dm 
To see your face again
                  Bb - Dm 
To see your face again
            Dm    Dm
To see your face, again
