I Hold Your Hand In Mine

Written by Tom Lehrer

	  		   G - Gm - D - B7 - Em - A - D  - A7 - - - 
  
        A             A7          D                   A      A7      D 
 I hold your hand in mine, dear, I press it to my lips, 
      F#                    Bm                   E               A       - A7 
    I take a healthy bite from your dainty fingertips. 
  
           A             A7          D                  A            A7     D      - B7 
My joy would be complete, dear, if you were only here, 
           G      Gm           D     B7      Em         A      D    - A7 
    but still I keep your hand as a precious souvenir. 
  
           Bb                       F               C                        F 
    The night you died I cut it off, I really don't know why, 
           Bb                      F                  E               E7       A     - A7 
    for now each time I kiss it, I get blood stains on my tie. 
  
            A      A7     D                         A             A7             D     - D7 
I'm sorry now I killed you, for our love was something fine, 
            G        Gm          D        B7       Em            A           D 
    and 'til they come to get me, I shall hold your hand in mine.
