Chorus: Gmaj7 D If not now then when Gmaj7 D If now today then Bm A F#m G Why make your promises D Bm A F#m G A love declared for days to come A Is as good as none A G You can wait 'til morning comes Bm You can wait for the new day G You can wait and lose this heart A You can wait and soon be sorry Chorus: Cause if not now, then when? If not today, then Why make your promises? A love declared for days to come Is as good as none Now love's the only thing that's free We must take it where it's found Pretty soon it may be costly Chorus: Cause if not now, then when?
