           Rub the palm of your hand on the grimy pane
                          F#m
In the hopes that you can see
 C#m                                     B
           Stand up tall, pretend you're strong
                          F#m
In the hopes that you can be
C#m                                          B
           Like the ones who cried, like the ones that died
                  F#m                      (a g# f# g# a)
Tryin' to set the angel in us free

[Verse]
A                 B                      E
    Scuffle for a nickel, struggle for a dime
A                    B                          E
    Forget about the past, leave your worries behind
A                F#                        E           C#m
    How come the future has to take such a long time
 
 
[Chorus]
                          A
When you're waiting for a
                          B
When you're waiting for a
                          E       C#m
When you're waiting for a miracle
 
                          A
When you're waiting for a
                          B
When you're waiting for a
                          E       C#m
When you're waiting for a miracle
 
                          A
When you're waiting for a
                          B
When you're waiting for a
                          E         (e  f#  g#  a)
When you're waiting for a miracle
