Hold On

Em C G D You’ve been along a long and lonesome road Em C G D Been treated so bad Em C G D You turn to things to try to make you happy Em C G D Only to find they make you so sad Em C G D The fella you meet you thought he was your true love Em C G D He turned out a drunk and hurt you so bad Em C G D Times they were tough you stuck it out for so long Em C G D Tried to forge a love and getting nothing in return, C Bb9 Hold onto your dreams and never let them go Am F The thoughts in your mind from a seed in which they grow C Bb9 G A tree that bears the fruit of love and tenderness Am F G Like the mother of a child has the love for evermore Em C G D He lost you somewhere when you drifted apart Em C G D You moved away and took something from his heart Em C G D There came the time when he called you up Em C G D There was no answer at the end of the line. C Bb9 Hold onto your dreams and never let them go Am F The thoughts in your mind from a seed in which they grow C Bb9 A tree that bears the fruit of love and tenderness Am F Like the mother of a child has the love for evermore G F Am He reached out for you but you were gone G F Am Losing you and he lost his way G F Am Searching all the places and listening for your voice G F Talking to himself wishing you could hear Em C G D Em C G D Em C G D Em C G D C Bb9 Hold onto your dreams and never let them go Am F The thoughts in your mind from a seed in which they grow C Bb9 A tree that bears the fruit of love and tenderness Am F Like the mother of a child has the love for evermore Em C G D Then one day it clicked inside his head Em C G D Stop this way of life stop drinking instead Em C G D Get on with your life get yourself together Em C G D Go and get on track you’ve got to move on Chorus 4 C Bb9 Hold onto your dreams and never let them go Am F The thoughts in your mind from a seed in which they grow C Bb9 A tree that bears the fruit of love and tenderness Am F C Like the mother of a child has the love for evermore
