This is when we wrote [C] for her new record.
It was just really [D] fun to write because
you're gonna hear pieces of me, pieces of her, pieces of Ashlyn Monroe who we wrote it with.
It's just really such a collaborative effort and we're writing it on the bus.

Her bus driver pulled over, stopped [C#] the whole caravan.
She had like eight buses behind her.
Everybody pulled over and he [D] made the other bus drivers come on the bus to [Cm] hear this song immediately.

But [G] ain't no moment like [C] when I'm holding on to you.
[G] Ain't no moment [F] like when I'm [C] holding on to you.
I've seen a newborn [G] child, stars in a mama's eyes.
[Am] And I prayed to the [F] man in the moon.
[C]
I got drunk with the highway, [G] felt the burn of the desert wind.
[A] [Am]
I've seen some promising [F] I do.
But ain't [G] no moment like [C] when I'm holding on to you.
[G] Ain't no moment like [C] when I'm holding on to you.
[E] Baby, over the [Am] years, I've been moved to [E] tears by the wonders of this [F] old world.
[G]
[E] But what I've got, little mysteries, [Am]
