Play intro riff over verse:

verse:
Riff
So I guess I'll make do
with all that was handed down
and shyly return
                         D
from this all night kickaround

Riff
Quiet and cursed
these tired bones demured
to shuffle it homeward
                       D
it's all I could endure

Chorus:
Dm
And have I waited too long
F                        Am
or did I not wait long enough?
                  F       Fm
These old walls remind me
                                  G
I guess I was hoping for something more

verse:
Riff
So lost in the live touch
of comfort and company
and whisper so coy
                 D  
and all that surrounded me

Riff
And after we walk
down avenues endlessly
and stave the sunrise
                    D 
from afirming our misery

Chorus:
Dm
And have I waited too long
F                       Am    
or did I not wait long enough?
               F       Fm     
I put it all behind me
                                  G 
I guess I was hoping for something more
Fm                                 G
I guess I was hoping for something more
