E
I lie awake at night
                  C#m7
Listening to you sleeping
                    A
I hear the darkness breathe
                         E
And the rain against the window

After all this time
            C#m7
Cynical and jaded
                   A
All the stones are diamonds

All the blues are faded

[Bridge]

F#m             G#m
Everything I've been through
A                 B
All I've seen and heard
F#m              G#m
Spend so much of my life
A                B
In the spiritual third world
F#m                      G#m
But you came and brought the rain here

[Chorus]

A         B       C#m
Something waiting to happen
          E           C#m
Something learning to fly
                    E
We can talk without talking
               F#m
From inside to inside
                 A
I have waited to feel this
                    E
For the whole of my life

[Verse 2]

E
We took ourselves apart
                    C#m7
We talked about our faces
                    A
You said you didn't like yours
            E
I said I disagree

I keep the pieces separate
                    C#m7
I clutch them in my coat
               A
A jigsaw of an angel
                     E
I can do when I feel low

[Bridge]

F#m                G#m
From emptiness and dryness
A                 B
The famine of our days
F#m                 G#m
I watch the heavens open
A           B
Wash it all away
F#m                  G#m
You came and brought the rain here

[Chorus]

A         B          C#m
Something waiting to happen
                      E
Something learning to fly
               C#m
On the edge of exploding
                   E
Something wild and alive
                     F#m
Something waiting to happen
                  D
Any time that you like
                 F#m
I have waited to feel this
A                   E
For the whole of my life
