[Intro]
Bm     Dm     A
     Bm        D       Ax7
[Verse]
BmI don’t know but the story goes, Dif you never slow down then you Anever grow old
BmThere’s a great big world just waitin to behold, Dbut your still Alying around
BmThe days fly by like a cloudy sky, Dand your glued to the TV Anever blinking an eye
BmAnd the world keeps changing, time’s passing you by, Dbut your just waitin to Adie so
[Chorus]
GWon’t you come Bmoutside, Dthere’s a beautiful world Aand its waiting for you
GAnd I know it might seem like its all just a waste of time, Bmsometimes
But you gotta decide, Aare you really alive
Or are you just waitin to Bmdie
      D  AJust waitin to BmdieD  A  
[Interlude]
     Bm       D       Ax2
[Verse 2]
BmWell if I told you once then I told you twice, Dyou’ll never win a gun battle if Ayou’re bringing a knife
BmAnd the truth it doesn’t hurt, if its spelled out right, Dbut its just to easy to Agive up the fight
BmAnd just place the blame, Dscream a name, and point a crooked finger Aits all the same
BmIts just a dirty little game that we keep playing, Dfull of dirty little lies in our Adirty little brains
BmAnd its hard to maintain when your locked away, Dtime to open up the door and come Aout to play
BmBecause the sun’s in the sky and it’s a beautiful day, Dthe world is wide open hey Awhat do you say now
[Chorus]
GWon’t you come Bmoutside, Dthere’s a beautiful world Aand its waiting for you
GAnd I know it might seem like its all just a waste of time, Bmsometimes
But you gotta decide, Aare you really alive
Or are you just waitin to Bmdie
GWon’t you come Bmoutside, Dthere’s a beautiful world Aand its waiting for you
GAnd I know it might seem like its all just a waste of time, Bmsometimes
But you gotta decide, Aare you really alive
Or are you just waitin to Bmdie          A        D  AJust waitin' to BmdieB  D  A
