G#
It's 2 AM and I'm not
Cm                     C#
asking too much else tonight
     C#m         G#
So I light a cigarette
And watch the flame burn to
   Cm                       A#m  C#
my fingers as I think and reflect
       C#m                  A#m
On the years that have gone by
            D#m            F#
And now I'm feeling like a king
         F#m
With one breath I'll take it all

G#                     Cm
Into my head I wont forget
                          C#
all of the times that we shared
             C#m               G#
We watched a good friend fade away
Just like our future on our
Cm                     C#
own no destinations in life
     C#m                   A#m C#
Only thing that's kept the same
              D#m            F#
But I'm still feeling like a king
And there's just one thing to say

Chorus:
C#              G#/C
I will wait for you
                   A#m
while you wait for me
And I'll meet you
G#              C#
somewhere in between
C#              G#/C
I will wait for you
                   A#m
while you wait for me
And I'll meet you
G#              F#  A
somewhere in between

It's 4 A.M. and I am just about to end this night
Because I'm out of cigarettes
I watch the stars burn through my window
As I think and reflect on the years
that have gone by
But I'm still feeling like a king
And there's just one thing to say

Chorus

A#m              G#
Time is running circles
          F#  C# G#
inside my head
A#m        G#
4 years of memories
          F# F#m
I wont forget

C#               F#
And time running out
              C#
Times running out
              G#
Times running out
to say goodbye
C#               F#
And time running out
              C#
Times running out
              G#
Times running out
to say goodbye
C#               F#
And time running out
              C#
Times running out
              G#
Times running out
to say goodbye
