The Waiting Room chords by Sixpence None The Richer

Verse:

Am C               F
   Fight 'til your fists bleed, baby


Am         C             F
  Beat the fate-walls enclosing you, maybe


Am         C          F
  God will unlock the cage of learning


    E        Dm
for you, for you

Am                F
   Fight 'til your fists bleed, baby


Am                      F
  Kick and scream at the wicked things, maybe


Em                    D                     A#
  God will unlock the door you need to walk through


Am             F
  When will it happen, baby?


Am            F
  It could be near, but then maybe


E            D
 it could be far


Chorus:

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


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


         D#                  D
In the waiting room of the world


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


Am                    F
  And the battle will never end well


Am                    F
  You can't marry our heaven to your hell


Am                  F
  We, Prolific, and you, the Devourer,


Em      Dm
need to see


Am                F
  Some things are sacred, baby


Am                      F
  Why have you gone and trampled them lately


Em                  Dm                A#
  I guess it's just all a part of your way


               G#
You should be ashamed


Instrumental:

Verse:

Am C           F                A
  I'm getting tired of fighting


E Em              D
  I guess I should ask,


Am         F
 "Do I go quietly down?


Am                F
  Do I kick, do I scream when I'm bound?


Am                  F
  Are you coming to open the door?


        E
Are you near?


        E
Are you near?


        D
Is it far?"

We will wait until you call our name out loud


       D#                  D
In the waiting room of the world


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


D#                         D       D A G#
