Hold On Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]They hung a sign up in [G]our town
If you [A]live it up, you won't [D]live it down
So she left Monteri[G]o, son,
just [A]like a bullet [D]leaves a gun
With her [G]charcoal eyes and Mon[A]roe hips
She went and [D]took that [G]California trip
Oh, the moon was gold, [A]her hair like wind
Said, [G]don't look back, just [A]come on, Jim
Oh, you've got to [D]hold on, [A]hold on
[D]You've got to [G]hold on
[D]Take my hand, [A]standing right here,
you gotta [D]hold [A]on[D]
Well, he gave her a dime [G]store watch
An[A]d a ring made from a[D] spoon
Everyone's looking for
[G]someone to blame
When you [A]share my bed,
you share [D]my name
Well, [G]go ahead and [A]call the cops
You don't [D]meet nice girls
in cof[G]fee shops
She said, baby, I [A]still love you
Sometimes [G]there's nothing [A]left to do
Oh, but you've got to [D]hold on, [A]hold on
[D]Baby, you've got to [G]hold on
[D]Take my hand,
I'm [A]standing right here
You've got to [D]hold on
Well, God bless your crooked [G]little heart
St. [A]Louis got the be[D]st of me
I miss your broken [G]china voice
How I [A]wish you were still [D]here with me
Oh, you [G]build it up, you wreck [A]it down
Then you [D]burn your mansion to [G]the ground
Oh, there's nothing left to keep [A]you here
But when you're [G]falling behind
in this [A]big blue world
Oh, you've got to [D]hold on, [A]hold on
[D]Baby, [G]gotta hold on and [D]take my hand
I'm [A]standing right here,
you gotta [D]hold on
Down by the [G]Riverside Motel
It's [A]ten below and fall[D]ing
By a ninety -nine [G]cent store
She [A]closed her eyes and [D]started swayin'
But [G]it's so hard to [A]dance that way
When it's [D]cold and there's no [G]music
Oh, your old hometown's so [A]far away
But in[G]side your head
there's a [A]record that's playin'
A song called [D]Hold On, [A]Hold On
[D]You gotta [G]hold on
[D]Take my hand, I'm [A]standin' right there
you gotta [D]hold on, you gotta hold on,
[A]hold on, [D]you [A]gotta [D]hol[G]d on
[D]take my hand, I'm [A]standing right here,
you gotta [D]hold on, you gotta hold on
You've got to hold on,
you've got to hold on
You've got to hold on you
