Boiled Frogs

[Intro]
A5
  A man sits at his desk
One year from retirement,
G5
  And he's up for review
Not quite sure what to do.
     D5
Each passing year
The workload grows.

[Verse 1]
A5
  I'm always wishing,
C5           F5            E5
  I'm always wishing too late
D5 A5
     For things to go my way
C5          F5            E5
  It always ends up the same
D5 G5 A5
        I must be missing,
C5          F5            E5
  I must be missing the point
D5
A5                      C5            F5             E5
  Your signal fades away  and all I'm left with is noise
D5 G5 G5

[Chorus]
So wait up,
                            A5
I'm not sleeping alone again  tonight.
                  G5
There's so much to  dream about,
                     A5
there must be more to  my life

[Bridge]
Poor little tin man,
still swinging his axe,
                                        A5
Even though his joints are clogged with rust.

[Verse 2]
My youth is slipping,
C5            F5        E5
  my youth is slipping away.
D5 A5                 D5          F5 E5
     Safe in monotony,  day after day 
D5 G5 A5
        My youth is slipping,
C5            F5        E5
  my youth is slipping away.
D5 A5
     Cold wind blows off the lake,
   C5           F5                 E5
and  I know for sure that it's too late
D5 G5 G5

[Chorus]
So wait up,
                            A5
I'm not sleeping alone again  tonight.
                  G5
There's so much to  dream about,
                     A5
there must be more to  my life

[Bridge]
A5
  Can't help but feel betrayed,
punch the clock every single day
           G5               D5
There's no loyalty and no remorse.
Youth sold for a pension cheque
And it makes him fucking sick
He's heating up, he can't say no
A5 G5 D5 A5
G5 D5 G5

[Chorus]
So wait up,
                            A5
I'm not sleeping alone again  tonight.
                  G5
There's so much to  dream about,
                     A5
there must be more to  my life
G5                                       A5
  So wait up I'm not sleeping alone again  tonight
                 G5                                    A5
Between the light  and shallow waves is where I'm going  to
  A5
die
