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