I figured this out by ear. Chords : G, D, Em, C all the way through. Capo : Just whatever fits your voice. I personally play with a Capo on the 5th, but you don't need one. (verse 1) G Are you waiting on a lightening strike? D Are you waiting for the perfect night? Em Are you waiting till the time is right? C What are you waiting for? (verse 2) Don't you wanna learn to deal with fear? Don't you wanna take the wheel and steer? Don't you wait another minute here What are you waiting for? (Chorus) You gotta go and reach for the top Believe in every dream that you got Your only livin' once so tell me What are you, what are you waiting for? You know you gotta give it your all And don't you be afraid if you fall Your only livin' once so tell me What are you, what are you waiting for? (verse 3) Are you waiting for the right excuse? Are you waiting for a sign to choose? While you wait it's the time you lose What are you waiting for? (verse 4) Don't you wanna spread your wings and fly? Don't you wanna really live your life? Don't you wanna love before you die? What are you waiting for? (Chorus) You gotta go and reach for the top Believe in every dream that you got Your only livin' once so tell me What are you, what are you waiting for? You know you gotta give it your all And don't you be afraid if you fall Your only livin' once so tell me What are you, what are you waiting for? (Bridge) Tell me what your waiting for Show me what your aiming for What you gonna save it for? So what you really waiting for? Tell me what your waiting for Show me what your aiming for What you gonna save it for? So what you really waiting for? Everybody's gonna make mistakes But everybody's got a choice to make Everybody needs a leap of faith When are you taking yours? (Chorus) You gotta go and reach for the top Believe in every dream that you got Your only livin' once so tell me What are you, what are you waiting for? You know you gotta give it your all And don't you be afraid if you fall Your only livin' once so tell me What are you, what are you waiting for?
