Capo on 2nd Fret
[Intro/Refrain]
E B5
So open up your morning light and
C#m Asus2
say a little prayer for I. You know
that
E B5
if we are to stay alive, then
C#m Asus2
see the peace in every eye.
E-B5-C#m- Asus2
Du du du, etc.
E-B5-C#m- Asus2
Du du du, etc.
[Verse]
E B5 Asus2
She had two babies,
C#m Asus2
one was six months, one was three
C#m B5- Asus2
in the war of forty four.
E B5 C#m Asus2
Every telephone ring, every heartbeat
stinging when she
C#m B5 Asus2
thought it was God calling her. Oh,
C#m
would
B5 Asus2
her son grow to know his father?
[Chorus]
E B5
I don't want to wait for our
C#m Asus2
lives to be over I
C#m B5
want to know right now, what will it
Asus2
be?
(repeat)
I don't want to wait for our lives to be
over
Will it be yes, or will it be sorry?
E-B5-C#m- Asus2
Du du du du du
E-B5-C#m- Asus2
Du du du du du
[Verse 2]
(repeat verse 1 chords)
He showed up all wet on the rainy front
step
wearing shrapnel in his skin.
And the war he saw lives inside him
still.
It's so hard to be gentle and warm.
The years pass by and now he has
granddaughters
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
C G
Oh, so you look at me from across the
room. You're
C G C
wearing your anguish again. Believe
me, I know the feeling; it
Em Asus2 B5
sucks you into the jaws of anger.
C G
Oh, so breathe a little more deeply, my
love. All we
D C C
have is this very moment
C G
and I don't want to do what his father
C
and his father and
G
his father did. I want to be here
Asus2
now.
[Intro]
Du du du's
