Dm7

Am G C F Am G C F

INTRO:

Am G C F Am G C F

VERSE:

Am G F C

You could see the smoke from a mile away

Am G C F

And trouble always draws a crowd

C Am G C

They wanna tell me that it'll be okay

Am G F C

But that's not what I need right now

Am G F C

Not while my house is burning down

CHORUS:

F G Am

I know someday

F G Am

I know somehow

Dm7 G Am

I'll be o-kay

C G F C F

But not right now

C G Am G C F Am G C F

Not right now

VERSE:

Am G F C

Tell me if the hope that you know is true

Am G C F

Ever feels like a lie even from a friend

C Am G C

When their words are salt in an open wound

Am G C F

And they just can't seem to understand

Am G C F

That you haven't even stopped the bleeding yet

CHORUS:

F G Am

I know someday

F G Am

I know somehow

Dm7 G Am

I'll be o-kay

C G F C F

But not right now

C G Am G C F Am G C F

No, Not right now

BREAK:

G Am

Don't tell me when I'm grieving

F C

That this happened for a reason

Maybe one day we'll talk about

The dreams that had to die

F C F

For new ones to come alive

C G Am G C F Am G C F Am G C F Am G C F

But not right now

VERSE:

Am G F C

While I wait for the smoke to clear

Am G C F

You don't even have to speak

C Am G C

Just sit with me in the ashes here

Am G C F

And together we can pray for peace

Am G C F

To the one acquainted with our grief

CHORUS/OUTRO:

F G Am

I know someday

F G Am

I know somehow

Dm7 G Am

I'll be o-kay

C G F C F

But not right now

C G F C F

But not right now

C G Am G C F Am G C F Am G C F Am G C F C

No, Not right now
