Theodosia writes me a letter every day
Am Am F F C C G G
She's keeping her bed warm while her husband is away
Am Am F F
He's on the British side in Georgia
C C G G
He's tryna keep the colonies in line
Am Am F F
Well he can keep all of Georgia
C C G G
Theodosia, she's mine.




Am Am F F C C G G
Love doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints, it takes and it takes and it takes
Am Am F F C C G G
And we keep loving anyway, we laugh and we cry and we break and we make our mistakes
Am Am F F C C G G
And if there's a reason I'm by her side when so many have tried
Am Am F F
Then I'm willing to wait for it
C C
I'm willing to wait for it.




Am Am F F C C G G
My grandfather was a fire and brimstone preacher
Am Am F F C C G G
But there are things that the homilies and hymns won't teach ya
Am Am F F
My mother was a genius
C C G G
My father commanded respect
Am Am F F
When they died they left no instructions
C C G G
Just a legacy to protect.




Am Am F F C C G G
Death doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints, it takes and it takes and it takes
Am Am F F C C G G
We keep living anyway, we rise and we fall and we break and we make our mistakes
Am Am F F C C G G
And if there's a reason I'm still alive when everyone who loves me has died
Am Am F F
Then I'm willing to wait for it
C C
I'm willing to wait for it.


[Bridge]

Am Am F F
Wait for it, wait for it

C C G G Am Am F F
I am the one thing in life I can control
C C G G Am Am F F
I am inimitable, I am an original
C C G G Am Am F F
I'm not falling behind or running late
C C G G Am Am F F
I'm not standing still, I am lying in wait

C C G G Am Am F F
Hamilton faces an endless uphill climb
C C G G Am Am F F
He has something to prove, he has nothing to lose
C C G G Am Am F F
Hamilton's pace is relentless, he wastes no time
C C G G
What is it like in his shoes?

Am Am F F C C
Hamilton doesn't hesitate, he exhibits no restraint
G G
He takes and he takes and he takes
Am Am F F
And he keeps winning anyway,
C C
He changes the game,
G G
He plays and he raises the stakes
Am Am F F C C
And if there's a reason he seems to thrive when so few survive,
G G Am Am
Then God dammit I'm willing to wait for it.
F F C C
I'm willing to wait for it...



Am Am F F C C G G
Life doesn't discriminate between the sinners and the saints, it takes and it takes and it takes
Am Am F F C C G G
And we keep living anyway, we rise and we fall and we break and we make our mistakes
Am Am F F C C
And if there's a reason I'm still alive when so many have died
G G
Then I'm willing to



Am Am F F C C G G
Wait for it...
Am Am F F C C G G
Wait for it...
Am Am
