[Verse 1]
D# C# G#
We were rolling down Beale street
C# G#
In the Tennessee summer heat
C# G#
I can't say it's the land of free
C# G#
But I'll tell ya, the booze runs cheap
D# C# G#
And there we met Drake's dad
C# G#
Told him we came from Hamilton
C# G#
He said he knew a Canadian girl
C# G#
Who had a thing for Americans
[Pre-Chorus]
C# C#m G#
And all the girls back home will tell you
C# C#m G#
Some grown ass men acting like boys
C# C#m
There's some Peter Pan shit we're tryna work out
G# A#
But when Sunday comes around, will you dig us on out?
C#
So we can be in your arms again
D#
Let me be in your arms again
[Chorus]
F# C# G#
Because I hold you (so high)
F# C# G#
Well let me hold you (so tight)
F# C# G#
So won't you hold up (that light)
Fm G#
So I can come home to find you?
[Interlude]
G#
Yeah, yeah
C# G#
C# G#
Yeah, yeah
C# G#
[Verse 2]
D# C# G#
We took the 40 down to Nashville
C# G#
We started getting a bit irrational
C# G#
The place was asking had questions
C# G#
For a bunch of bachelors
D# C# G#
So we stumbled down Broadway
C# G#
Everybody getting sloppy
C# G#
We met some girls getting married
C# G#
But they came here to party
[Pre-Chorus]
C# C#m G#
And no one knows how we made it back to the hotel
C# C#m G#
Adam took off his pants again, yes he did
C# C#m
There's some Peter Pan shit we're tryna work out
G# A#
But when Sunday comes around, will you dig us on out?
C#
So we can be in your arms again
D#
Girl, let me be in your arms again
[Chorus]
F# C# G#
Because I hold you (so high)
F# C# G#
Well let me hold you (so tight)
F# C# G#
So won't you hold up (that light)
Fm G#
So I can come home to find you?
A#
Bring her on up
A#
B-b-bring her on up
A#
[Bridge]
F D# A# D# A#
I do my best thinking, thinking in the shower
D# A# D# A#
Sometimes I do my pre-drinking, drinking in the shower
F D# A# D# A#
So I think about my neighbors and the politics and labor
D# A# D# A#
Between Karl and Groucho, I couldn't tell you which I favor
[Chorus]
G# D# A#
Because I hold you (so high)
G# D# A#
Well let me hold you (so tight)
G# D# A#
So won't you hold up (that light)
Gm
Why won't you hold on that line, I'm coming for ya
G# D# A#
Because I hold you (so high)
G# D# A#
Well let me hold you (so tight)
G# D# A#
So won't you hold up (that light)
Gm A#
So I can come home to find you?
[Outro]
A# D# A#
Hold up that light
A# D# A#
I'm lost at sea
A# D# A#
But I'm coming home
