[Verse 1]
C# (C# Riff)
Just because it feels right
A#m (C# Riff)
It doesn’t have to feel nice
F#
It shouldn’t feel so empty
D#m (C# Riff)
When there’s still me and you
[Verse 2]
C# (C# Riff)
Now that they have grown up
A#m (C# Riff)
Packed their bags and left us
F#
How I wish that we could hold them
D#m (C# Riff)
Hoping that we told them to stay true
[Chorus]
G#m A#7 (A#7 Riff)
Oh Hold on,
D#m F#m (F#m Riff)
After all the things that we’ve been through
(C# Riff)
Hold On
G#
Hold On
[Verse 3]
C# (C# Riff)
Every-time we look back
A#m (C# Riff)
Do we really need to back track
F#
Every time that I fall down
D#m (C# Riff)
You’re the only one who’s always there
[Chorus]
G#m A#7 (A#7 Riff)
Oh Hold on,
D#m F#m (F#m Riff)
After all the things that we’ve been through
(C# Riff)
Hold On-----
[Chorus]
G#m A#7 (A#7 Riff)
Oh Hold on,
D#m F#m (F#m Riff) G#m (G#m Riff)
It always just comes back to me and you
[Bridge]
D#
These are the hands of a tired man
D#
I lost my shroud and here I stand
Cm
The teenage mother has a plan
Cm
Her child has now become a man
G#
You stop you look you try to find
A# D#
Then you’ll finally realise----
D#
And when your dreams they turn out real
D#
What you touch is what you feel
Cm
When all your demons go away
Cm
You fight to live another day
G#
And though the things you didn’t try
A# D#
Then you finally realise---
[Outro]
A#m C7
Oh Hold on,
Fm G#m (G#m Riff)
It always just comes back to me and you
(D# Riff) A#
Hold On
A# D#
Hold On-----
(D# Riff) (D# Riff) x3
Hold On
