Don’t Wait Too Long, Remedy Drive
Timing = 4/4
Key = F
Intro = C, C/Gm, Bb, F 2x
NOTES VERY IMPORTANT!!!! = the C chord is the 3rd inversion, the Gm (part of the C/
Gm) is the fist version, the Bb is the 3rd inversion and the F is the 1st
inversion. This allows the song to be played all in one spot on a keyboard. Not so
sure about a guitar but I’m sure something could be worked out.
(Verse 1)
C C/Gm
Every thing is quiet here outside the sound,
Bb F
You bury you talent in the ground.
C C/Gm
Tired of always standing still waiting around,
Bb F
You feel so lost, just wanna be found.
(Music intro again only once)
C C/Gm
Everything is lonely your outside the song,
Bb F
You wait another year’s gone.
C C/Gm
Yet another sun goes down but still it’s wrong,
Bb F
You wanna make it right, not wait too long.
(Chorus)
C C/Gm Bb F
Yeah, don’t wait too long, don’t wait too long.
C C/Gm Bb F
Yeah, don’t wait too long, don’t wait too
(Verse 2)
C C/Gm
Can you see the fire it burns behind the skies?
Bb F
It’s not enough to exist, but just survive.
C C/Gm
Can you see the fire inside the children’s eyes?
Bb F
They’re waiting for you to come alive.

(No music intro at all)
C C/G,
Everyone is waking up, but the brains are drawn,
Bb F
You can’t recall what you’re running from.
C C/Gm
Open up the shudders come on embrace the dawn,
Bb F
The race is on, so don’t wait too long.
(2nd Chorus)
C C/Gm Bb F
Yeah, don’t wait too long, don’t wait too long.
C C/Gm Bb F
Yeah, don’t wait too long, don’t wait too long.
C C/Gm Bb F
To live, to love, to find a song to be part of,
C C/Gm Bb F
To forgive, to move on, don’t wait too long, don’t wait too long.
(Instrumental Solo === Dm for “16 measures”, play the music intro 2x just like
at the beginning)
(3rd Chorus)
C C/Gm Bb F
Yeah, don’t wait too long, don’t wait too long.
C C/Gm Bb F
Yeah, don’t wait too long, don’t wait too long.
C C/Gm Bb F
To live, to love, to find a song to be part of,
C C/Gm Bb F
To forgive, to move on, don’t wait too long don’t wait too long.
C C/Gm Bb F
Listen, and dance, and hold the hands of innocence,
C C/Gm Bb F
Trust you be long, don’t wait to long don’t wait too long.
(Instrumental Solo === Dm for “8 measures” and that’s the end of the song)
Added note ==== the measure for the instrumental solos are accurate!!!!! To do the
beat in your head (count to 4) 16 times, then 8 times. MAKE SURE TO THE RYTHME!!!!!
