The Waits Not Easy

F G Am C


[Verse 1]
        F             G
Have we had enough
Am                            C/G
Telling everybody their wrong?
        F                  G
Does it build it us up?
Am                                 C/G
Tearing down the ones we could love?


[Interlude]
F G Am C

Oh, Hold On


[Verse 2]
        F            G
Have we given up?
Am                                  C/G
Living like there's nothing to lose?
        F            G
Will we ever stop?
Am                                       C/G
Fighting like there's something to prove?


[Interlude]
F G Am C

Oh, Hold On


[Chorus]
   G
If heaven's so close
     Em                  F            C
then why does it feel so far away?
              F
I want to get out of here
        Am        G             F        Am
but I'm still not ready to leave.

  G                          Em
Believing something betters ahead
                  F       C
but the waits not easy
              F
We still have love to give
        Am           G                F
Will we share it now while we're awake?

[Verse 3]
        F             G
When we will forget
Am                               C/G
Warring just to take what we want?
       F             G
Are we too afraid
   Am                                   C/G
To see there's nothing greater than love?


[Interlude]
F G Am C

Oh, Hold On


[Chorus]
   G
If heaven's so close
     Em                  F            C
then why does it feel so far away?
              F
I want to get out of here
        Am        G             F        Am
but I'm still not ready to leave.

  G                          Em
Believing something betters ahead
                  F       C
but the waits not easy
              F
We still have love to give
        Am           G                F
Will we share it now while we're awake?
