F/A            A#
Bumper car me left or right
      C               Dm
I’ll take a thousand knocks
F/A            A#
There’s a happy man in there
     C                    Dm
And you won’t blink your eyes
     F/A                 A#
Like all the things you lost before I
 C                           Dm
Right where you left me you know-oh
     F/A                 A#
Like all the things you found
       C                            Dm
Don’t taste them just swallow them whole

Chorus:
   F
I forfeit my time
And wait
           Dm           C
While you make up your mind
    Dm
So tell me
    F
If you ever find your flag
      Dm               C       Dm
Cause I will be right by you where you stand

Lift me up or tear me down
I’ll stand right up again
There’s a happy soul in there
But you won’t let him in
Like all the things we say before we
Crumble and fall to the floor
Like all the things we try
Aye aye
I know where it’s headed and so

Chorus:
I forfeit my time
And wait while you re-make up your mind up
So tell me
If you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Oh I will be right by you where you stand
I will deliver
Where you stand I will not fall
Where you stand there is no ocean
Nor a river nor a shore

   F
I fall into line
                    C/E
And wait while you make up your mind
               Dm                    A#
So tell me if you ever find your flag

Chorus:
I forfeit my time
And wait
While you make up your mind
So tell me
If you ever find your flag
Cause I will be right by you where you stand
Oh I will be right by you where you stand
Oh I will be right by you where you stand
