Wait

The intro and recurring riff on E goes something like this:
B B
e|------0-------0-------0-------0---------0----------------------|
B|----------------------------------------0----------------------|
G|----1-------4---4-6-4-----------------2------------------------|
D|--------4-6-------------6-4-2-------2--------------------------|
A|--------------------------------0------------------------------|
E|0--------------------------------------------------------------|
and repeats.

[Verse 1]
B B
I had a dream of you and I
B B
Carried on waves of happiness
B B
Opened my eyes and we're hanging on tight
G#m B
To a sinking ship and I'm losing grip
B B
Living on different frequencies
B B
And I see you less frequently
B B
Time after time we just pass in the night
G#m
We're a sinking ship
B
You can't let Go of it
[Chorus]
B B
So I'll wait, wait a little longer
B B
Yeah, I'll wait with the bruises and scars
B#m B
And I'll wait 'til you're a little stronger
G#m B
'Cause together, together
B B B B
Is tearing us apart
N.C.
^^ Between the last two lines of the chorus is a small progression from G#m -> B -> progression -> B
I find it sounds good to play some variation of B -> B#m -> F#m -> B -> C -> B.
[Verse 2]
B B
And she said, "Look at those cracks, won't you fix them up?"
B B
And, "You did this to us, don't you dare give up"
B
And though, my arms are open
B
My heart is shut tight
G#m
But I can't disconnect
B
When I wanna protect you
[Chorus]
B B
So I'll wait, wait a little longer
B B
Yeah, I'll wait with the bruises and scars
B#m B
And I'll wait 'til you're a little stronger
G#m B
'Cause together, together
[Bridge]
B#m
We're not living our lives
Are we living a lie?
B#m/Cm
Are we just treading water?
All caught up in the tide
B#m/C B#m/Bm
If we're gonna survive, gotta sever the ties, oh no
B
But until then
[Chorus]
B B
I will wait, wait a little longer
B B
And I'll wait with the bruises and scars
B#m B
And I'll wait 'til you're a little stronger
G#m B
'Cause together, together
B B
I will wait, wait a little longer
B B
And I'll wait with the bruises and scars
B#m B
And I'll wait 'til you're a little stronger
G#m B
'Cause together, together
G#m B
'Cause together, together
B
Is tearing us apart
