Holding On To Home

F Dm F C Bb 2x F Endearing though to me, Dm many a man has tried to flee F the sordid corners of Dm this putrid penitentiary, Bb oh, are you here with me? F Are you here with me, or Dm am I dreaming of your shackles F loudly dragging through Dm the hallways of my reverie, Bb oh, are you here with me? F Dm F C Bb F Farther than a lunar axis, Dm as far as I know outer space is. F Innovation never takes us Dm as far as we can be. Bb What is left for me? F Dimmer than a summer solstice, Dm north of any blooming roses, F melted water, open faces, Dm below the winter freeze Bb as the cold paralyzes me. F Dm F C Bb F C Bb Oh I’m holding on to home.

F I know every step to take, Dm Bb I know every creak the stairs will make. F Holding on to home Dm like it’s as real as a stone, and F if I told you: “you imagined it”. Dm Would it matter anymore, if Bb you’re with me? As long as you’re with me. F Dm F C Bb F C Bb Oh I’m holding on to home. F C I’m holding on to... F Dm F C Bb F C Bb Oh I’m holding on to home.
