[Verse 2]
But then [G]why, what [D]could I [Em]say?
What [Asus4]would it [A]mea[Bm]n?[A][D]
[A]'Cause then I, [G]I'd giv[Bm]e awa[Em]y
All [A]the love I [Bm]feel
[A]Just [D]a c[A]hil[G]d, I was waiting
[A]On the line, he elevated
[Bm]He stayed put while I was wandering

[G]Why, [D]I g[Em]ot l[A]ost

Oh how [D]I wanna be like [G]him[D][Em]
He takes [G]away the weight
[D]before your heart gives [A]in

[Verse 4]

What [Asus4]would it [A]mea[Bm]n?[A][C#m][D]

All the [A]love I [Bm]feel[A][D][A]
[G]Just a child, I was waiting
[A]On the line, he elevated

All [A]the love I [Bm]feel[A][D]
