[Gm] [Dm]
[Gm] [Dm]
[Gm] [F] [Gm]
[F] [Gm]
[Dm] Weight of [Bb] love on my shoulders
I [Dm] thought that it [Bb] would be easier than this
[F] I thought my heart [Eb] had grown colder
[Bb] But the warmth of your kiss I can't dismiss
Though my [Dm] past has left [Eb] me bruised
[Gm] I ain't [F] hiding from [Eb] the truth
When [Gm] the [F] truth won't let [Gm] me lie right next [C] to [Gm] [C] you
[Gm]
[Bb] But it's holding on, and [Gm] it's holding strong
[Bb] Even though I tried to make [F] it plain to point, but I can't fake [Bb] it
It keeps holding on, and it's [Gm] holding strong
[Bb] Even though I tried to break [F] it, heaven knows that I [Eb] can't shake it
[Gm] [Dm] [Bb] Holding on,
[Dm] [C] holding [Bb] on
[Am] Holding [Bb] on,
[Dm] holding [Bb] on
[Dm] I've seen [Eb] times that were harder
[Bb]
I [F] remember [Bb] the taste of bitterness
[Dm] Won't you help [Eb] me, my father
[Gm]
[Bb] [F] Help me fall [Eb] in the love that I have missed
[Bb] Though my [Dm] past has left [Eb] me bruised
I [Bb] ain't [Dm] hiding from [Gm] the truth
[Cm]
[Gm] When the [Dm] truth won't let [Bb] me lie right next [Gm] to you
[C] But
[Bb] it's holding on, [Gm] and it's holding strong
[Bb] Even though I tried to make [F] it plain to point, but I can't fake [Bb] it
It keeps holding on, and [Gm] it's holding strong
Even [Eb] though I tried to break [F] it, heaven knows that I [Gb] can't shake [Bb] it
[Dm] Whoa, [Bb]
[Am] whoa
[Bb]
[Dm] Holding [Eb] [Bb] on, [F] holding [Eb] [Dm] on
[C] [Bb]
[Am] [Bb]
[C] [Bb] [Eb]

[Bb] [F] [Eb]
[Bb] it's holding on, [Gm] and it's holding strong

It keeps holding on, [Gm] and it's holding strong
Even [Eb] though I tried to break [F] it, heaven knows that I [Gb] can't shake it
[Gm] [F] Holding [Bb] on,
[F] holding [Eb] on
[Bb] It keeps [Dm] holding [Eb] on, it [Dm] keeps [Bb] holding on
It [Dm] keeps [Gm] holding on, [Bb]
[F] [Bb] holding on
[Dm] Holding [Bb] on, [Dm] [Eb] holding on
