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
