Holding Out Chords

(ver. 1)
Metric
[Intro]
Am Dm F C E
Am Dm F C E   C and E only half a bar
 
[Verse]
Am                   Dm
Holding out for the right time
             F               C  E
What if the right time never arrives?
Am                     Dm
Always waiting on the sidelines
            F
When is it my time
           C           E
To be the one, the one, the one?
 
 
Am                   Dm
Holding out for the right time
          F                C   E
My whole lifetime slowly goes by
Am                      Dm
Always waiting on the sidelines
            F
When is it my time
           C           E
To be the one, the one, the one?
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
C*              Dm*    Em*
What are you doing tonight?
     F*
You can't just scroll through pictures and hide
C*               Dm*   Em*  F*
What do you wanna do right now
 
Right now, right now, right now
 
 
[Chorus]
G  G/C  Dm C F
 
[Verse]
            G                 G/C  Dm
All that's happened filling up my days
            C                   F
All that's coming up, so far away
        G                     G/C  Dm
In between, I'm always holding out
     C                   F
Am I ever gonna be here now?
            G                 G/C  Dm
All that's happened filling up my days
            C                   F
All that's coming up, so far away
        G                     G/C  Dm
In between, I'm always holding out
     C                   F
Am I ever gonna be here now?

That second lifetime never arrives
Am                     Dm
Always waiting for perfection
         F                 C
Where affection cannot be won
       E
Be won, be won
 
 
Am                    Dm
Holding out for the right time
             F             C  E
That second lifetime never arrives
