[Ab] [Db]
They hung a [Ebm] sign up in our town.
[Ab] If you live it up, [Db] you won't live it down.
So she [Gb] left Monterey, oh son.
[Ab] Just like a [Db] bullet leaves a gun.
With her charcoal [Ab] eyes and Monroe hips.
She went and [Db] took that [Gb] California tip.
Well the moon was [Ab] gold and her hair like wind.
[Eb] She said don't look [Ab] back, just come [Abm] on Jim.
Oh, you [Db] got it.
Hold on, hold [Eb] [Bbm] on.
You got to hold on, take [F] my hand.
I'm telling you, you [Db] got to hold on.
Well he [Gb] gave her a dime store watch.
[Ab]
And a ring made [Db] from a spoon.
Everybody's looking for [Gb] someone to blame.
If [Eb] you share my bed, [Db] you share my name.
[Gb] So go ahead [Ab] and call the cops.
You [Db] don't need nice [Gb] girls in coffee shops.
[Ebm] Just say hey baby, [Ab] I still love you.
But [Gb] sometimes there's [Ab] nothing left to [Abm] do.
Oh, you [Db] got to hold on, hold [Bbm] on.
Oh, you got to hold on, take my [Ebm] hand.
Standing right [Db] here, you got to hold on.
Well, [B] God bless your crooked little heart.
[Ab] St.
Louis got [Db] the best of me.
I miss your [B] broken china voice.
[Eb] How I wish you were still [Db] here with me.
[B] Where you build it up and [Ab] you wreck it down.
And [Db] you burn your [Gb] mansion to the [B] ground.
When there's nothing [Ab] left to keep you here.
[Ebm] And you're falling [Ab] behind in this big blue world.
Oh, [Eb] you [Db] got to hold on, hold [Bbm] on.
Oh, you got to hold on, take [Eb] my hand.
Standing right here, [Db] you got to hold on.
Down by the [Gb] Riverside Motel.
Is [Db] Tenderloin falling?
Or by [Gb] 99th and Store?
[Abm] She closed her eyes and started to sway.
[Gb] But it's so hard [Ab] to dance that way.
[Db] When it's cold and [Gb] there's no music.
When you're old [Ab] hometown so far away.
[Gb] But inside your head there's [Ab] a record playing.
A song [Db] called hold [Ab] on, hold on.
[B] Yeah, you got to hold [Db] on, take my hand.
Standing right here, you got to hold on.
Hold on, [Bbm] hold on.
Yeah, [B] you got to hold [Db] on, take my hand.
[Abm] Standing right here, you got to hold on.
