[C] [G]
[VERSE 1]
[G]I'm s[C]itting in a ro[G]om
And w[C]aiting for an [G]answer
[G]Hoping that the l[D]ord sees fit to [G]let me leave.
Cause if the [C]news ain't [G]good
And you [C]ain't comin [G]back here
I'm gonna [D]stay until my bones have turned to [G]leaves
[CHORUS]
I'm waiting on a [C]word
Hanging on a p[G]rayer
White walls like limbo
They keep my feet on the [D]ground
[G]If I [C]lose my [G]baby
I tell you [C]where they can [G]lay me
Set me down on a cloud
With my [D]soul turned inside [G]out
[VERSE 2]
[G]Well [C]they fixed me [G]up good
But m[C]y heart's stil[G]l bleeding
[G]And there's only [D]one thing in thi[G]s world to let me heal
So baby open [C]up your eye[G]s and tell me your not leavin
And I'm go[D]nna make you feel so good it won't [G]feel real.
[CHORUS]
I'm waiting on a [C]word
