We Wait (Morph)

Liner Notes
In the Morph challenge, you listen to the song of the person before you and create a new one, using 50% of their material and 50% new. What that 50% means is up to you! To learn more it (and sign up!) check out this thread: https://write.fawm.org/forums/2976

I got to morph @andygetch's song! Without sharing too many spoilers for @mikehex, I used the same open D tuning and some of the same chords and lyrics.
Verse Chords: Dm G Dm / Dm G Dm / F# m* G Dm / Dm G Dm
Chorus: G A B / G A B / G A B / G# maj* G /
(* might be slightly wrong, I'm not always great at picking these out!)

Lyrics
We wait for an invitation
We wait for the planets to align
We wait until we feel ready
And we tell ourselves that this is wise
We wait while we walk the roads in our heads
Of everything that can go wrong
We circle the spaces that we know
And hope that they’ll be changing
There’s no right time
For any of this mess
There’s no right time
To start it all again
And that’s left is
Wondering where the true path is
We wait til we start to crumble
We wait ‘til we have no choice
We wait until we feel humble and low
We wait ‘til we have no voice
There’s no right time
For any of this mess
There’s no right time
To start it all again
And that’s left is
Wondering where the true path is

I've determined Morphing is fun (this t'was my first go 🙂)

Almost.
Love the song, and I'm up! I'll see what I can do

Couldn't agree more with the sentiment and construction of this lyric. Very effective stuff
