[D] [E] [F#m] [E] [D] [E] [F#m]
[Verse]
[Bm]A man sits at his desk, one year from retirement,
[G]And he's up for review, not quite sure what to do.
[E]Each passing year, the workload grows.
[Verse]
[Bm]I'm always wishing, [D]I'm always [G]wishing too [F#m]late[E]
[Bm]For things to go my way, [D]it always [G]ends up the [F#m]same [E] ([A]Count your blessings)
[Bm]I must be missing, [D]I must be [G]missing the [F#m]point[E]
[Bm]Your signal fades away [D]and all I'm [G]left with is [F#m]noise[E]
([A]Count your blessings on one hand)
[Chorus]
[G]So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again [Bm]tonight.
There's so much to [G]dream about, there must be more to my [Bm]life
[Bridge]
[Bm] [E] [F#m]Poor l[E]it[Bm]tle t[E]in[F#m] man,[E]
[D]stil[E]l [F#m]swingi[E]ng[D] his[E] a[F#m]xe, even though his joints are clogged with rust.
[Verse]
[Bm]My youth is slipping, [D]my youth is [G]slipping [F#m]away[E]
[Bm]Safe in monotony, (so [D]safe), [G]day after [F#m]day [E] ([A]Count your blessings)
[Bm]My youth is slipping, [D]my youth is [G]slipping [F#m]away[E]
[Bm]Cold wind blows off the lake, and I [D]know for sure [G]that it's too [F#m]late[E]
([A]Count your blessings on one hand)
[Chorus]
[G]So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again [Bm]tonight.
There's so much to [G]dream about, there must be more to my [Bm]life
[Interlude]
[Bm]Can't help but feel betrayed, [Bm]punch the clock every single day
There's no [G]loyalty and no re[E]mo[E]rse.
[Bm]Youth sold for a pension cheque, [Bm]and it makes him fking sick
He's [G]heating up, he can't say [E]no[E]
([Bm]Whoa-Whoa-[G]oh)[E][E]
([Bm]Whoa-Whoa-[G]oh)[E][E]
[Riff]
[E] [F#m] [E] [A] [D]

There's so much to [G]dream about, there must be more to my [Bm]life
(So wait up) [G]So wait up, I'm not sleeping alone again [Bm]tonight.
Between the light and [G]shallow waves is where I'm going to [Bm]die[Bm]
[Outro]
[G]Wait [A]up for [Bm]me
[G]Wait [A]up for [Bm]me
[G]Wait [A]up for [Bm]me
