[Verse 1]
D (D Riff)
Just because it feels right
Bm (D Riff)
It doesn’t have to feel nice
G
It shouldn’t feel so empty
Em (D Riff)
When there’s still me and you
[Verse 2]
D (D Riff)
Now that they have grown up
Bm (D Riff)
Packed their bags and left us
G
How I wish that we could hold them
Em (D Riff)
Hoping that we told them to stay true
[Chorus]
Am B7 (B7 Riff)
Oh Hold on,
Em Gm (Gm 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
Bm (D Riff)
Do we really need to back track
G
Every time that I fall down
Em (D Riff)
You’re the only one who’s always there
[Chorus]
Am B7 (B7 Riff)
Oh Hold on,
Em Gm (Gm Riff)
After all the things that we’ve been through
(D Riff)
Hold On-----
[Chorus]
Am B7 (B7 Riff)
Oh Hold on,
Em Gm (Gm Riff) Am (Am Riff)
It always just comes back to me and you
[Bridge]
E
These are the hands of a tired man
E
I lost my shroud and here I stand
C#m
The teenage mother has a plan
C#m
Her child has now become a man
A
You stop you look you try to find
B E
Then you’ll finally realise----
E
And when your dreams they turn out real
E
What you touch is what you feel
C#m
When all your demons go away
C#m
You fight to live another day
A
And though the things you didn’t try
B E
Then you finally realise---
[Outro]
Bm C#7
Oh Hold on,
F#m Am (Am Riff)
It always just comes back to me and you
(E Riff) B
Hold On
B E
Hold On-----
(E Riff) (E Riff) x3
Hold On
