Bm
They rise above this,
D
They cry about this,
G               Bm
As we live and learn
Bm
A broken promise,
D
I was not honest,
G                      Bm
Now I watch as tables turn,
And you're singing -

Chorus:
G             A
I'll wait my turn,
                Bm
To tear inside you,
           G
Watch you burn,
              A
I'll wait my turn,
              Bm
I'll wait my turn.

I'll cry about this
And hide my cuckold eyes
As you come off all concerned
And I'll find no solace
In your poor apology
In your regret, that sounds absurd
And keep singing

Chorus:
G             A
I'll wait my turn,
                Bm
To tear inside you,
           G
Watch you burn
                  A
And I'll wait my turn,
              Bm
To terrorize you,
           G
Watch you burn
                  A
And I'll wait my turn,
              Bm
I'll wait my turn.

Bm
And this is a promise,
Promise is a promise - x3

Chorus:
And I'll wait my turn
To tear inside you
Watch you burn
I'll wait my turn
I'll wait my turn

A broken promise
You were not honest
I'll bide my time
I'll wait my turn
