[Verse 1]
D# (D# Riff)
Just because it feels right
Cm (D# Riff)
It doesn’t have to feel nice
G#
It shouldn’t feel so empty
Fm (D# Riff)
When there’s still me and you
[Verse 2]
D# (D# Riff)
Now that they have grown up
Cm (D# Riff)
Packed their bags and left us
G#
How I wish that we could hold them
Fm (D# Riff)
Hoping that we told them to stay true
[Chorus]
A#m C7 (C7 Riff)
Oh Hold on,
Fm G#m (G#m Riff)
After all the things that we’ve been through
(D# Riff)
Hold On
A#
Hold On
[Verse 3]
D# (D# Riff)
Every-time we look back
Cm (D# Riff)
Do we really need to back track
G#
Every time that I fall down
Fm (D# Riff)
You’re the only one who’s always there
[Chorus]
A#m C7 (C7 Riff)
Oh Hold on,
Fm G#m (G#m Riff)
After all the things that we’ve been through
(D# Riff)
Hold On-----
[Chorus]
A#m C7 (C7 Riff)
Oh Hold on,
Fm G#m (G#m Riff) A#m (A#m Riff)
It always just comes back to me and you
[Bridge]
F
These are the hands of a tired man
F
I lost my shroud and here I stand
Dm
The teenage mother has a plan
Dm
Her child has now become a man
A#
You stop you look you try to find
C F
Then you’ll finally realise----
F
And when your dreams they turn out real
F
What you touch is what you feel
Dm
When all your demons go away
Dm
You fight to live another day
A#
And though the things you didn’t try
C F
Then you finally realise---
[Outro]
Cm D7
Oh Hold on,
Gm A#m (A#m Riff)
It always just comes back to me and you
(F Riff) C
Hold On
C F
Hold On-----
(F Riff) (F Riff) x3
Hold On
