[Verse]
G
I am waiting until I don't know when
D G
Because I'm sure it's going to happen then

Time keeps creeping through the neighborhood
D G
Killing old folks, waking up babies just like we knew it would
[Instrumental]
G D G
[Verse]
G
All the neighbors are starting up a fire
D G
Burning all the old folks the witches and the liars
G
My eyes are covered by the hands of my unborn kids
D G
But my heart keeps watching through the skin of my eyelids
[Verse]
C G Gmaj7
They say a watched pot won't ever boil
C G Gmaj7
Well I closed my eyes and nothing changed
B A G
Just some water getting hotter in the flames
[Instrumental]

[Verse]
G
It's not a lover I want no more
D G
And it's not heaven I'm pining for
G
But there's some spirit I used to know
D G
That's been drowned out by the radio
[Verse 5]
C G Gmaj7
They say a watched pot won't ever boil

You can't raise a baby on motor oil
B A G
Just like a seed down in the soil, you've got to give it time
