Chords with lyrics

Verse:

A minorAm C majorC        FF
  Fight 'til your fists bleed, baby


A minorAm     C majorC       FF
 Beat the fate-walls enclosing you, maybe


A minorAm     C majorC     FF
 God will unlock the cage of learning


  E MajorE    DmDm
for you, for you

A minorAm        FF
  Fight 'til your fists bleed, baby


A minorAm           FF
 Kick and scream at the wicked things, maybe


E minorEm          D MajorD           A#A#
 God will unlock the door you need to walk through


A minorAm       FF
 When will it happen, baby?


A minorAm      FF
 It could be near, but then maybe


E MajorE      D MajorD
 it could be far


Chorus:

G+G         D#D#         D MajorD
Here we are in the waiting room of the world


    G#G#                G+G
We will wait until you call our name out loud

     D#D#         D MajorD
In the waiting room of the world


    G#G#               G+G
We will wait until you call our name out loud


A minorAm          FF
 And the battle will never end well


A minorAm          FF
 You can't marry our heaven to your hell


A minorAm         FF
 We, Prolific, and you, the Devourer,


E minorEm   DmDm
need to see


A minorAm        FF
 Some things are sacred, baby


A minorAm           FF
 Why have you gone and trampled them lately


E minorEm         DmDm        A#A#
 I guess it's just all a part of your way


        G#G#
You should be ashamed


Instrumental:

Verse:

A minorAm C majorC      FF        A augmentedA
 I'm getting tired of fighting


E MajorE E minorEm       D MajorD
 I guess I should ask,


A minorAm     FF
 "Do I go quietly down?


A minorAm        FF
 Do I kick, do I scream when I'm bound?


A minorAm         FF
 Are you coming to open the door?


    E MajorE
Are you near?


    E MajorE
Are you near?


    D MajorD
Is it far?"

We will wait until you call our name out loud

In the waiting room of the world
