Patience

Dm C G

[Verse]
Am         G         D
Been good, been bad, got worse, got better.
Am      G     D
I feel I know myself when I'm looking in the mirror.
Am              G            D
I've been hurt, been loved - I'm scarred, not bitter.
Am       G                            D
I am an angel with the knowledge of a sinner.

[Bridge]
F                     F#dim
What do I do, and how should I be?
G                                     G#dim
When I look at myself, I can only be me....

[Chorus]
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience...
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience...
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience...
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience... Yeah

[Verse]
Am         G          D
Been hard, been soft, been both, been neither
Am         G  D
Above it all, I am only a survivor.
Am         G         D
Been down, been low, got up, got higher -
Am         G         D
We are only human, all just liars...

[Bridge]
                  F            F#dim
So I wait for the day when I open my eyes
                 G                       G#dim
And I look to myself, but it's no big surprise

[Chorus]
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience...
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience...
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience...
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience... Yeah

[Middle 8]
         F
Well I'm sitting here and sinking and I'm on the 8th floor
        F#dim
And I'm thinking do I jump or should I stay around some more?
  G
I watch my friends get bigger and get better and get richer
G#dim
Well I'm not bitter, no
F                                                         F#dim
Time is ticking ticking ticking ticking ticking on with a vengeance
G
I want it all
G#dim
I want it all

[Chorus]
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience...
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience...
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience...
                Dm    C     G
I need a little patience... Yeah
