Em Now, I do my best to not be bitter F#m Give my rage a babysitter Gmaj7 Stop waiting for the adults to come home Em It's a firework and you can't stop it F#m I'm cutting holes in all the pockets G Of everyone that's calling me insane D Oh, waiting for rain G D Oh, begging for rain G D A G Em Oh, begging for rain D A G Em D A G Em I keep waitin' D A G Em D I keep waitin' D Ooh, ooh D Ooh, ooh D Ooh, ooh D Ooh
