D
And there'll come a time
A/C# G
when the hand holding mine
G D
may become calloused
A/C#
or may become careless
G
or weathered and wise
[verse 2]
D A
nothing hurts much,
G
much more than the way,
D
Everything grows,
A
Then everyone goes,
Bm
And all of us fade
[chorus]
Em D
And some days don't feel right
Bm A
and you won't know why
Em D
And some years you won't
Bm
hold as dear to your heart
A Em
As the ones to arise
D Bm
So don't let it wait, don't let it wait
A7
Don't let it wait til the next time
[Instrumental]
D A/C# Bm
[verse 3]
D A/C#
And the boys drew their hearts
Bm
drew their hearts on my hands
D
and I closed them tight
A/C#
For fear that I might
Bm
not hold what I have
[verse 4]
D A/C# Bm
We are all kites held by a string
D
who long for the sky
A/C#
But don't get yourself high
Bm
not tied to a thing
[chorus]
Em D
And some days don't feel right
Bm A
and you won't know why
Em D
And some years you won't
Bm
hold as dear to your heart
A Em
As the ones to arise
D Bm
So don't let it wait, don't let it wait
A7
Don't let it wait til the next time
[Instrumental]
