Verse 1

G                   Em
I waited for ya, I waited for ya

Bm                       D
I waited on ya, But, now I don't

G                      Em
You didn't see it, That didn't see it

Bm                        D
That didn't see it, but now, oh, i do

(G-Em-Bm-D)
I play your game
I play your game
(now)
I play your game
I play your game

Chorus

         C           D
I take my Chances alone, 

G                     Em
Get on your horse and be gone,

        C                    D            
I will not wait up for you anymore,

              G                    Em
So you can ask me if something is wrong

C          D
Will you go?

G            Em
I don't know anymore

Repeat intro

Verse 2 - Same progression as Verse 1 - (G Em Bm D)

When the night isn't ready for you
It's a feeling I know that dogs you
They invited a stewardess, too
Now they want you to see it

Here's to days he decides he's got time
And he claims that it's not a surprise
When he finds out the truth's on his side

Chorus
         C           D
I take my Chances alone, 

G                     Em
Get on your horse and be gone,

        C                    D            
I will not wait up for you anymore,

              G                    Em
So you can ask me if something is wrong

C          D
Will you go?

G            Em
I don't know anymore

C               D
I don't believe anyone

G                  Em
As they crawl out of my way

Bridge/Outro

(D Em - 3x then D until it stops.)

Waiting for the night
Leaving night by night
You can see me travel
We could be in trouble every night
We're having a new life

One of the best tracks in their album Comedown Machine.
