Waiting For The End
Linkin Park
Bridge 1:
E
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision
A
But you listen to the tone and the violent rhythm
B
Though the words sound steady something empty's within 'em
E
We say yeah, with fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something that's invisible there
A
Cause we're living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
B
Until we dead it forget it let it all disappear
Verse 1:
E A2
Waiting for the end to come, wishing I had strength to stand
F#m B E B
This is not what I had planned, it's out of my control
E A2
Flying at the speed of light, thoughts were spinning in my head
F#m B E B
So many things were left unsaid, it's hard to let you go
Chorus:
C#m A2
I know what it takes to move on
C#m A2
I know how it feels to lie
E B
All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
C#m A2
Holding on to what I haven't got
Verse 2 (same as Verse 1):
Sitting in an empty room, trying to forget the past
This was never meant to last I wish it wasn't so
Chorus:
I know what it takes to move on
I know how it feels to lie
All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
Holding on to what I haven't got
Bridge 2:
E
What was left when that fire was gone
I thought it felt right but that right was wrong
A
All caught up in the eye of the storm
B
And trying to figure out what it's like moving on
E
And I don't even know what kind of things I said
My mouth kept moving and my mind went dead
A
So picking up those pieces now where to begin
B
The hardest part of ending is starting again
Interlude: E - E - A2 - B
Coda:
E
All I wanna do is trade this life for something new
A2 B
Holding on to what I haven't got
E
This is not the end, this is not the beginning
Just a voice like a riot rocking every revision
A2
But you listen to the tone and the violent rhythm
B
Though the words sound steady something empty's within 'em
E
We say yeah with fists flying up in the air
Like we're holding onto something that's invisible there
A2
Cause we're living at the mercy of the pain and the fear
B
Until we dead it forget it let it all disappear
