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
