Not For Nothing from Skip a Sinking Stone(2016) by Mutual Benefit
[Intro]
 C   Cadd9   C   Cadd9   C   Am7[4x]
Winding roaCd and setting Amsuns
Take us bacFk from where we've comCe
I don't want Fto see this lovCe
Become a memGory
Broken wingAms won't get me farC  
Just the baFck seat of this caCr
And as our disFtance grows apaCrt
I hope you'll wait foGr me
Swaying treCes and power linAmes
Always hFypnotize my mindC  
I fear it's Fnot enough this timCe
To stop from wonderinGg
If things wiAmll ever go our wCay
When I caFn't seem to stay in plCace
Could it be Flove that makes us Cchange?
It's not for nothinGg
C E Am E F G
And starry nCights and moonless skiesAm  
I think I’vFe got it bad this Ctime
I stayed up Flooking for a sigCn
Out the winGdow
Though, at Amtimes, we lose our Cway
Home is cloFser every daCy
Just a littFle past the hazeC  
It's not for nothinGg
C E Am E F Am G
C E Am E F G
C Am F C F C G
Though, at Amtimes, we lose our Cway
Home is Fcloser every Cday
Just a Flittle past the Chaze
It's not for nothinGg

[Intro]

C Cadd9 C Cadd9 C Am7

[4x]

C Am

Winding road and setting suns

F C

Take us back from where we've come

F C

I don't want to see this love

Become a memory

Am C

Broken wings won't get me far

F C

Just the back seat of this car

F C

And as our distance grows apart

I hope you'll wait for me

C Am

Swaying trees and power lines

F C

Always hypnotize my mind

F C

I fear it's not enough this time

To stop from wondering

Am C

If things will ever go our way

F C

When I can't seem to stay in place

F C

Could it be love that makes us change?

It's not for nothing

C E Am E F G

C Am

And starry nights and moonless skies

F C

I think I’ve got it bad this time

F C

I stayed up looking for a sign

Out the window

Am C

Though, at times, we lose our way

F C

Home is closer every day

F C

Just a little past the haze

It's not for nothing

C E Am E F Am G

C E Am E F G

C Am F C F C G

Am C

Though, at times, we lose our way

F C

Home is closer every day

F C

Just a little past the haze

It's not for nothing
