          A#                   G#
There’s a new wave, there’s a blank screen
            Gm                   G#
There’s a black line where your name should be
       A#            G#
I can feel it, but I can’t see
             Gm                        F#
There’s a strange song playing on the radio

Chorus:
A#            Fm               Cm
I, I’ve been waiting for that call
  D#
Tryin’ to keep busy
A#            Fm               Cm
I, I’ve been waiting for that call
D#
Oh, you know
        A#           G#
I’m an animal, I’m a cigarette
       Gm                  G#        F 
If I’m burning out the I’m not done yet
     A#            Fm              A#
Baby I, I’ve been waiting for that call

I can’t move on
I can’t walk away
'Cos there's no one else who could take your place
I can see a light, then I hear my name
And I know deep down I'ma be okay

Oh, you never know when it's gonna hit
If you think you do then you don’t know shit
It’s a long day waitin' on the world to end

Chorus:
I, I’ve been waiting for that call
Tryin’ to keep busy
I, I’ve been waiting for that call
Oh, you know
I’m an animal, I’m a cigarette
If I’m burning out then I’m not done yet
Baby I, I’ve been waiting for that call

I, I’ve been waiting for that call
Tryin' to keep busy
I, I’ve been waiting for that call
Oh you know
I’m an animal, I’m a cigarette
If I'm burning out then I'm not done yet
Baby I, I’ve been waiting for that call
I’ve been waiting for that call
I’ve been waiting for that call
