They hung a sign up in our town 
       A                    D           D 
If you live it up you won't live it down 
   D              G      G 
So she left Monte Rio son 
A                  D           D 
Just like a bullet leaves a gun 
     G                 A          Asus4  A 
With charcoal eyes and Monroe hips 
             D             G          G 
She went and took that California trip 
         Em7                   A             A 
Well the moon was gold and her hair like wind 
         Em7                  A 
She said don't look back just come on Jim 


 
A       A               D        A 
Oh you, you, you got to hold on, hold on 
D           G 
 You got to hold on

I take my hand, I'm standing right here

     D             G               G 
Well he gave her a dime store watch 
      A                 D      D 
And a ring made from a spoon 
D                       G               G 
Everyone is looking for someone to blame 
        A                 D            D 
But you share my bed, you share my name 
     G            A            Asus4  A 
Well go ahead and call the cops 
          D                  G           G 
You don't meet nice girls in coffee shops 
Em7              A            A 
She said baby I still love you 
    Em7                   A 
Sometimes there's nothing left to do 


A       A               D        A 
Oh you, you, you got to hold on, hold on 
D           G 
 You got to hold on 
  D                  A 
I take my hand, I'm standing right here

     D                      G           G 
Well god bless your crooked little heart 
   A                  D         D 
St Louis beef got the best of me 
  D                G          G 
I miss your broken china voice 
      A                   D           D 
How I wish you were still here with me 
    G                A            A 
You build it up, you wreck it down 
        D                 G            G 
And you burn your mansion to the ground 
             Em7             A            A 
When there's nothing left to keep you here 
            Em7                    A 
When you're falling behind in this big blue world 

 
A        A              D        A 
Oh girl, oh, you got to hold on, hold on 
D           G 
 You got to hold on 
  D                  A 
I take my hand, I'm standing right here

You got to hold on

D                G         G 
Down by the riverside motel 
     A            D      Dsus4    D 
It's 10 below and falling 
D       G         G 
By a 99-cent store 
    A                           D      Dsus4    D 
She closed her eyes and started swaying 
    G               A             Asus4    A 
But it's so hard to dance that way 
          D                   G     G 
When it's cold and there's no music 
          Em7                A       A 
Well your old hometown is so far away 
      Em7                       A 
But inside your heard there's a record playing 
     A              A 
It's playing a song, a song called 


D        A 
Hold on, hold on 
D           G 
 You got to hold on 
  D                  A 
I take my hand, I'm standing right here 
           D      Dsus4    D 
You got to hold on 
D        A 
Hold on, hold on 
D           G 
 You got to hold on 
  D                  A 
I take my hand, I'm standing right here 
           D      D 
You got to hold on 
D        A 
Hold on, hold on 
D           G 
 You got to hold on 
  D                  A 
I take my hand, I'm standing right here 
           D      D 
You got to hold on
