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