E             Bm           F#m                     A
Everybody's thinkin' 'bout all the things they're missin' out
E        Bm          F#m  A
Wastin' time lookin' back

Actin' like they live it up, when it's really just a front
E    Bm       F#m A
How funny is that?

       E       Bm
If you ain't awake

Waitin' by the telephone

You'll lose the moment like you're not here
Baby, you can't blink, you won't miss it, my dear
You act like missin' out is your only fear
You didn't miss shit, let me make that clear

If you wait, I'll wait
I'll call you when it's goin' down
Stayin' up late
Waitin' by the telephone

It's not as good as they claim
 F#m
Make no mistake, it's really not so great
D                          A
It's not as good as they claim

If you wait, I'll wait
I'll call you when it's goin' down
Stayin' up late
Waitin' by the telephone

If this is it, it's a swing and a miss (Yeah, yeah)
If this is it, it's a swing and a miss (Yeah, yeah)
If this is it, it's a swing and a miss (Yeah, yeah)
Nobody said you could fit it all in (Yeah, yeah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
