Lifeline

Ben Harper (2009)

	C#m	G#m
	Life is much too short to sit and	wonder

	B	C#m	C#m	B
	Who's gonna make the next	move

	C#m	E
	And will slowly pull you	under

	B	C#m	C#m	B
	When you've always got something to	prove

	A	E
	I don't want to wait a	lifetime

	B	C#m	C#m	B
Yours or	mine, yours or	mine

	A	E
	Can't you see me reaching for the	lifeline

	B	C#m	A	E
Your	life	line, your	life	line

	B	C#m	A	E
Your	life	line, your	life	line

You say that I misheard you

But I think you misspoke

I hear you laugh so loudly

while I patiently await the joke

I don't want to wait a lifetime

Not yours

Not mine

Can't you see me reaching for the lifeline

Your lifeline, your lifeline

Your lifeline, your lifeline

It's a crime with only victims

We're all laid out in a row

And it's hardest to listen

To what we already should know

I could hold out for a lifetime

Yours or mine, yours and mine

Can't you see me reaching for your lifeline?

Your lifeline, your lifeline

The lifeline, the lifeline
