COMPLETE SONG:

Intro x 2

Verse 1
I've been waiting like a dog now
and I've been waiting to get back on my feet
I've been waiting like a dog now
waiting on the ground to get a treat

Verse 2
I've been waiting for hours
thinking back to times that call my name
I've been waiting like a dog now
despising the one that I became

Intro x 1

Verse 1
I've been waiting like a dog now
weeks will turn into months and months turn into years
every colour is the same now
there's no black no white there's only gray

Verse 2
I've been waiting for hours
still there's nothing changed
I've been waiting like a dog now
gazing at the backdoor once again

D
D                   C            Am
and I don't want to wait until I die
    Em               C
and I know I know I know I know 
         D
I know I know I know I know
C  D     Em
it takes time
      C          D     C  D
don't leave me behind
    Em                      C
and I've been to places and seen many faces
    D                  C    D   Em
but nothing that could ease my mind
      C          D     C  D
don't leave me behind

Verse 3
I've been waiting like a dog now
I've been waiting like a dog now
I've been waiting like a dog now
I've been waiting like a dog now

    Em*(short)   (mute)   C (strum up)
and I know I know I know I know
        D (strum up)
I know I know I know I know
C  D     Em 
it takes time
      C          D     C  D
don't leave me behind
    Em                      C
and I've been to places and seen many faces
    D                  C    D   Em
but nothing that could ease my mind
      C          D     C  D   Em
don't leave me behind
      C          D
don't leave me behind
    C    D       Em
but ease my mind
      C          D
don't leave me behind
    C    D       Em(strong)
but ease my mind
      C(strong)  D(strong)
don't leave me behind
    C    D       Em
but ease my mind
