[Intro/Refrain]
Gsus2/F             Gsus2/E
So open up your morn-ing light and
Gsus2/D         Gsus2/C
say a little prayer for I.  You know that
Gsus2/F         Gsus2/E
if we are to stay alive, then
Gsus2/D          Gsus2/C
see the peace in every eye.

G(add2)
Du du du, etc.
C6/9
Du du du, etc.

[Verse]
G(add2)
She had two babies,
C6(add2)/G
one was six months, one was three
C6/9
in the war of forty four.
G(add2)
Every telephone ring, every heartbeat stinging when she
Em7            D          Cmaj9
thought it was God calling her.  Oh, would
Em      D6                 C(add9)
her son grow to know his father?

[Chorus]
G(add2)            D(add4)/F#
I don't want to wait for our
Em11          Dsus
lives to be over I
C6                    G(add9)/B
want to know right now, what will it
Dsus/A   Dsus
be?
(repeat)
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
Will it be yes, or will it be sorry?
G(add2)
Du du du du du
C6/9
Du du du du du

[Verse 2]
(repeat verse one chords)
He showed up all wet on the rainy front step
wearing shrapnel in his skin.
And the war he saw linves inside him still.
It's so hard to be gentle and warm.
The years pass by and now he has granddaughters

[Chorus]
G(add2)            D(add4)/F#
I don't want to wait for our
Em11          Dsus
lives to be over I
C6                    G(add9)/B
want to know right now, what will it
Dsus/A   Dsus
be?
(repeat)
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over
Will it be yes, or will it be sorry?
G(add2)
Du du du du du
C6/9
Du du du du du

[Bridge]
G7(add4)
Oh, so you look at me from across the room.  You're
Am9b13
wearing your anguish again. Believe
Bb(add2)
me, I know the feeling; it
Fsus                       C(add9)
sucks you into the jaws of anger.
G7(add4)
Oh, so breath a little more deeply, my love.  All we
Am9b13
have is this very moment
Bb(add2)
and I don't want to do what his father and his father and
Fsus                              Gsus2
his fater did.  I want to be here now.

[Intro/Refrain]
Gsus2/F             Gsus2/E
So open up your morn-ing light and
Gsus2/D         Gsus2/C
say a little prayer for I.  You know that
Gsus2/F         Gsus2/E
if we are to stay alive, then
Gsus2/D          Gsus2/C
see the peace in every eye.

G(add2)
Du du du, etc.
C6/9
Du du du, etc.
