[D]
[A] [E]
[F#m] [D]
[A] [E]
Baby gather [A] yourself
Up till [A] now
There's been no clue
Oh the awakening
Will be swift
And [C#m] harsh And rude
And [A] it won't be what you know
And it won't be
What you'd expect
And it'll carry
With it the force
[E] Of fear inspiring [A] Grit
[E]
Oh this keeps me
Up all night
[B]
Makes me
Pass the day in [D]
bed
And it's caused [E] me Such grief
It's been months
Since I've prayed
But [A] I'll do what Is right
I will do [B] what's [D] Expected
No I [A] won't
Be [E] chastised
And I won't be Rejected
[D]
Cause I
[A] Will wait
For you [D] to Come
I [A] will wait
For you [E] to
Change your mind
And I [A] will Give you Your [D] one Last chance Over
And over
[E] A thousand times
[E] [F#m]
[D] I [A]
[E] [F#m]
[A]
[E] want [A] it
To [C#m] be your Shelter
I [D] want it
To be your home
I want it
[E] To be your reason
And have that reason Made known
So no one [A] would know
All my weakness
No [D] one could hear
What I'm thinking
Oh [A] I am the biggest [E] Coward
They call the woman [E] of the Hour
[Em]
[D] The woman of the [E] hour
[G#m]

[E]
[A]
Doing 80 miles
An [B] hour
I'll roll the window Down
And with the freedom heavy
On the air
I felt like I could drown
[A] And everything Is different
And though freedom
Had its [D] price
[A] The poor man
Who's shown [C#m] a mark
Through [E] the ashes
[E] Still I rise
[D]
Cause I [A] Did wait
For [D] you to Come
[A] I did wait
For [E] you to
Change your mind
And I [A] did Give you
[D] Your last chance [A] Over
And over
[E] A thousand [A] times
[E] But I [A] will
Live out
[D] of fairness
And I [B] will
Be the richness that lies Beneath the
Surface of awareness
[D]
[A]
[D] Oh Oh
[A]
