[Intro]
A E D A E D A E D A E D

[Verse 1]
A        E                F#m   D E A        E               F#m E5 D
Too many people, too much trouble,  too many problems in the morn.
A       E              F#m  D E A       E                F#m  E5 D
Another sunrise in the rubble,  another ship sunk by the storm.

[Pre-chorus 1]
Bm                         G
Some little angel tries to tell me that it's over.
     D                          A
It's just a bad reflection from above.
    Bm                             G
The load upon my shoulder makes me stronger, even bolder.
D                       E  E7
Oh no no, I haven't had enough.

[Chorus]
A                     F#m
Heaven can wait 'til another day,
       D                        E
'cause there ain't no reason to leave.
    A                         F#m
The world is a stage where we all can play-
 D                     E
another fine reason to live

[Post-chorus]
               A E F#m E7            A E F#m E5 D
and heaven can wait,      heaven can wait.

[Verse 2]
A          E             F#m  D E A         E                F#m E5 D
Each day a new reason to give up, each day another reason to sigh.
A         E                F#m    D E A         E                F#m E5 D
A hundred thousand ways to live up,   a hundred thousand ways to try.

[Pre-chorus 2]
Bm                           G
Hey, little angel, don't you tell me that it's over.
       D                           A
You're just a bad reflection from above.
    Bm                             G
The load upon my shoulder gives me reasons to get older.
D                            E   E7
Tell the boss I haven't had enough.

[Chorus]
A                     F#m
Heaven can wait 'til another day,
       D                        E
'cause there ain't no reason to leave.
    A                         F#m
The world is a stage where we all can play-
 D                     E
another fine reason to live

[Post-chorus]
               A E F#m E7            A E F#m E5 D
and heaven can wait,      heaven can wait.
       A E F#m E7        A E F#m E5 D
let it wait,      let it wait
       A E F#m E7        A E F#m E5 D
let it wait,      let it wait

[Guitar solo]

[Bridge]
    D        E               D              E
Our eyes are closed but they should be open wide
   B             F#           E            F#7
So listen to the voice that's calling from inside.
      B     C#       E              F# F#7
Let's stay alive and move on on our way

[Outro]
               B F# G#m F#7            B F# G#m F#5 E
and heaven can wait,       heaven can wait.
               B F# G#m F#7            B F# G#m F#5 E
and heaven can wait,       heaven can wait.
               B F# G#m F#7            B F# G#m F#5 E
and heaven can wait,       heaven can wait.
               B F# G#m F#7            B F# G#m F#5 E
and heaven can wait,       heaven can wait.
N.C.         B
