Chords

NO CAPO. It's kind of a simplified version, you're just strumming the melody while the picking and whatnot happens in the back lol. The instrumental and outro are omitted for now. [Verse]
Am C               F
   Fight 'til your fists bleed, baby

Am         C             F
  Beat the fate-walls enclosing you, maybe

Am         C          F
  God will unlock the cage of learning

    E        Dm
for you, for you

Am                F
   Fight 'til your fists bleed, baby

Am                      F
  Kick and scream at the wicked things, maybe

Em                    D                     A#
  God will unlock the door you need to walk through

Am             F
  When will it happen, baby?

Am            F
  It could be near, but then maybe

E            D
 it could be far
[Chorus]
G                  D#                  D
Here we are in the waiting room of the world

        G#                               G
We will wait until you call our name out loud

         D#                  D
In the waiting room of the world

        G#                              G
We will wait until you call our name out loud

Am                    F
  And the battle will never end well

Am                    F
  You can't marry our heaven to your hell

Am                  F
  We, Prolific, and you, the Devourer,

Em      Dm
need to see

Am                F
  Some things are sacred, baby

Am                      F
  Why have you gone and trampled them lately

Em                  Dm                A#
  I guess it's just all a part of your way

               G#
You should be ashamed
[Instrumental] [Verse]
Am C           F                A
  I'm getting tired of fighting

E Em              D
  I guess I should ask,

Am         F
 "Do I go quietly down?

Am                F
  Do I kick, do I scream when I'm bound?

Am                  F
  Are you coming to open the door?

        E
Are you near?

        E
Are you near?

        D
Is it far?"
[Outro]
G                  D#                  D
Here we are in the waiting room of the world

G#                                      G
We will wait until you call our name out loud

       D#                  D
In the waiting room of the world

 G#                                     G
We will wait until you call our name out loud

D#                         D       D A G#
In the waiting room of the world
