[D]
[A] [D] They put [G] a sign up in our town [D] If you live it up, he won't live it down
So [A] she left Monterio, [G] son [D] Just like a bullet leaves a gun
With [G] her charcoal eyes and [A] Monroe hips [D] She went and took that [G] California trip
Well, [D]
[Em] the moon was [A] gold, her hair like wind She [E] said, don't look [A] back, it's the Mungin
Oh, [F#m] you've got [D] to hold [A] on, hold [D] on
[G] Baby, you've got to hold [D] on Take my [A] hand, standing right [D] here, you've
got to hold on
And he gave her a [G] dime store [A] watch And a [D] ring made from a spoon
Everybody's looking [G] for someone [A] to [G] [A] blame But you share my [D] bed, you share my name
So [G] go ahead [A] and call the cops [D] You don't need nice girls [G] in coffee shops
[Em] Oh, [A] and she said, baby, I still love you [D] [A] But [E] sometimes there's nothing [A] left to do
Oh, but you've got [D] to hold on, [A] hold [D] on
Baby, [G] you've got to hold [D] on Take my [A] hand, standing right here, [D] you've
got to hold on
[G] [D] God [Gm] bless your crooked little heart [A] St.
Louis [D] got the best of me
I miss [G] your broken china voice [A] How I wish you [D] were still here with me
[G] But you build it up, [A] you wreck it down [D] You burn your mansion [G] to the [D] ground
[G] When [D] [A] there's nothing left to keep you here When you're falling behind in this big blue
world Oh, you've got to hold on, hold [D] on
[G] Baby, you've got to hold [D] on Take my [A] hand, standing right [D] here, you've
got to hold on
[G] Down by the Riverside Motel [A] It's ten [D] below and falling
And by a [G] 99-cent store [A] She [D] closed her eyes and started to wait
But [G] it's so hard [A] to dance that way When [D] it's cold and [G] there's no music
And when [Em] you're old hometown's [A] so far away But [Em] inside your head [A] there's a record playing
A song called [A] Hold on, hold [D] on
Baby, you've [G] got to hold on [D] Take my [A] hand, standing right here, [D] you've
got to hold [A] on, hold [D] on
Baby, [G] you've got to hold [D] on Take my [A] hand, standing right [D] here, you've
