Dawson's Creek (I don't wanna to wait)

F             C/E
so open up your morning light
     Dm            C
and say a little prayer for I
               F           C/E
you know that if we are to stay alive
     Dm                C
and see the peace in every I

G        G        C        C      x2

G
she had two babies
one was six months one was three
C
in the war of '44
G
every telephone ring
every heartbeat stinging
           Em            D           C
when she thought it was God calling her
    Em             D                C
oh would her son grow to know his father

G                    D/F#
i don't want to wait
          Em         D
for our lives to be over
   C                 G/B
i want to know right now
      Am
what will it be
G                    D/F#
i don't want to wait
          Em         D
for our lives to be over
     C             G/B        Am
will it be yes or will it be sorry

G        G        C        C      x2

G
He showed up all wet
on the rainy front step
C
wearing shrapnel in his skin
G
and the war he saw
lives inside him still
         Em          D          C
it's so hard to be gentle and warm
     Em                  D
the years passed by and now
                C
he has a granddaughter

Chorus

G
Oh so you look at me
from across the room
you're wearing your anguish again
believe i know the feeling
it sucks you into the jaws of anger
oh, so breathe a little more deeply my love
all we have is the very moment
and i don't want to do what
his father and his father and his father did
i want to be here now
so open up your morning light
and say a little prayer for I
you know that if we are to stay alive
and see the peace in every I

     Dm            C
and say a little prayer for I

you know that if we are to stay alive
