Start Jamming...
Once upon a time, not so long ago
Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike, he's down on his luck
It's tough, so tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings home her bed for love
For love
She says we gotta hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not
We got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot, oh baby
Take my hand, we'll make [Gm] it I swear
I [Cm] wanna [N] pray
Tommy's got his six drinking high
Now he's holding in what he used to make it talk
So tough, mmm it's tough
Gina
[E] dreams of running away
When she cries in the night Tommy whispers
Baby it's okay, someday
We gotta hold on to what we've got
It doesn't make a difference if we make it or not
We got each other and that's a lot for love
We'll give it a shot, oh [N]
baby
Take my hand, we'll make it I swear
Ready or not, you live for the power [C] [Bbm] that you've got
Oh [G] [Bb] [N]
I swear
