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