Nothing Good Comes To Those Who Wait

Chilly Gonzales


Tom: Em

Am  G D Em
Am  G D Am

Am  G    D  Em
You came to me
Am   G     D    Am
Last night in a dream
C           G     C       G
Through the dark, hand to heart
    Am         Em    C        G
You touched my face, electric scar
  C       G        Am         Em
I ask you why, but there's no voice
       C            Em
Just a look in your eye


Am       G   D      Em
Then the sun breaks through
Am    G   D       Am
I'm awake without you
Am  G     D    Em
How cruel this mind
Am  G  D    Am
To say goodbye twice
C        G          C       G
Leave me alone, why come to me
Am      Em       C       G
Just to leave, a cage no key
  C         G       Am        Em
I crave the dark, I close the blinds
    C        Em
And force my mind


Am  G D    Em
How I will wait
Am G   D Am
Oh how I will wait
Am       G      D     Em
For this bitter sleep to come
Am      G     D    Am                                  Am
So this dream will care, care, care, care, care, care, care


     Em                                     D
Last night I had a dream that I woke up screaming
Em                                  C
Only to realize that I was still dreaming
G                               A7
Nothing good comes to those who wait
B7                                   Am
Nothing ever comes 'til it comes too late


     Em                                     D
Last night I had a dream that I woke up screaming
Em                                  C
Only to realize that I was still dreaming
G                               A7
Nothing good comes to those who wait
B7                                   Am
Nothing ever comes 'til it comes too late


           Em                                 D
There's no cage in the world that can come between us
Em                                       C
We don't need a kid, we've got a musical genius
   G                                 A7
No cage in the world that can come between us
B7                                       Am
We don't need a kid, we've got a musical genius


Em                              D
Nothing good comes to those who wait
    Em                                C
And nothing ever comes 'til it comes too late
G                   A7
Lost in impossible gospel
B7                                   Am
Playing solitaire with my own apostle


Em                            D
This is the cost of exhausted options
    Em                             C
And colossal obstacles, constantly boxed in
G                               A7
I'm in mourning this morning in black pajamas
B7                                        Am
A life's sentence with question marks and lots of commas


Em                                   D
Too much baggage, my heart's sluggish
Em                               C
This dream is meant to carry on--hand luggage
G                           A7
Wide awake so I wrote these bars
B7                         Am
I close my eyes and I hear stars
Em
