Hold on, you once were full and sang of [B] grace, hold on
[Dbm]
[Eb] [Abm]
[B] [E]
[Abm] One taste of the sound from [E] the sirens [Abm] in the water
And I'm thinking I should get out the [E] sharpest sword and [Abm] suit of armor
So I [Dbm] can be ready to strike
[Abm] But I pause one more time, one [Db] last taste of the sound
[Ab] Then [Abm] I'll cut these sirens down
But as [Dbm] they
[Eb] sang [Dbm] I forgot
[Eb] they [Abm] were dead
So I brought them [Db] my [E]
heart to be filled
[Abm] And I followed them
No trace [Gb] could I find of [E] any joy
The [Eb] sirens promised they had [Abm] found a way with the [B] light
To [E] turn what's good and [Eb] should be wanted into [Dbm] what is highest above
[E] [Abm] All desires and loves
[Db] Till [Gm] my heart would obey [F] whatever [Abm] it wants
Whatever it takes to [Dbm] feel alive and set free
[Abm] Only bound to the [B]
sea
[Db] Where the sirens are [F] leading [Abm] me on

Hold on, [Ebm] hold
[B]
on in [Abm] my heart
You once [E] were full and sang [B] of grace, hold on
[Ebm]
Hold on in my [Abm] heart
You've [E] tasted joy that's more [B] than this
Hold on, hold on in my [Abm] heart
You once [E] were full and [B] sang of grace, hold on
Hold on in [Abm] my heart
You've tasted [E] joy that's more [B] than this Hold on
