I'll Hold Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Baby,
don't [F]go (please don't go)
But if you must,
I guess I'll [D]hold (I've already [G]waited this long)

[Verse 2]
[Am]Now things are slow
[F]I won't let my impatience rule [D]my tongue
I'm [G]lying to you, dying to [Am]know[F]

[Verse 3]
[G]I can cause a lot o[C]f hurt,
you know [Am]that[F][G][C][Am][F]
Now the [G]question is whether
I'm [C]worth the combat
[Am]'Cau[F]se so far nobody h[G]as ever
[C]called me [Am]back[F]

[Verse 4]
[G]I've made a list of things I [C]need to work at
[Am]And [F]ever[G]y [C]nigh[Am]t[F][G]
I find [C]something [Am]to ad[F]d
[G]Now I use it as a [C]welcome [Em]mat
[Am][F]

[Verse 5]
[G](Please don't) I've been measuring my [C]worth,
[Am]yeah [F](let go)
Just [G]tell me what I de[C]serve, [Am]yeah[F]
[C](Please don't) Tell me I'm[G]
[C]a real piece of [G]work, [Am]yeah[F]
[C]And I can cause a lot of hurt

[Verse 6]
[Am][F]
(Please don't) Now [G]I fell in love i[C]n reverse,
[G]yea[Am]h (let go[F])
And [G]I'm a little [C]slow to learn, [G]yeah[Am][F]
[C](Please don't) But you[G]'re just mak[C]ing it wor[G]se,
yeah
[Am][F][G][C]

[Verse 7]
[Eb]
[Cm](No, you don't) And it's [C]true that [Eb]hurt people hurt people,
no (no, you [Cm]won't)
[C]But [Eb]that's not an excuse[G] to
[Eb]leave (no, you [Cm]don't)
And we [C]know that [Eb]worse people burn [G]people [Eb](no, no,
[C]you [F]won't)
That's not an ex[G]cuse [Am]for me

[Verse 8]
You [F]love to make me wait,
I'm [D]still on my own (I've always [G]hated this song)
It [Am]takes so long
So [F]don't you dare obstruct the roll [G]I'm [D]on
[G]And I'm trying,
but I'm doing it [Am]wrong[F]

[Verse 9]
[G]And I can cause a lot [C]of hurt
you know [Am]that[F]
[G]I've been measuring my [C]worth,
[Am]yeah[F]
Every[G]one can feel it in the
[C]way I [Am]act[F]
But so far, [G]nobody has ever fought me back
