| Gm | Gm | F | Dm | | Gm | Gm | F | Dm | Gm Next thing I knew we were in deep Gm Hold on to me, 'cause babe I'm 'bout to leave F She said it never felt so right Dm As the time went by, and I was off in the night Gm Gm She said I don't cry, tonight I cried twice, The thought of you not by my side F And I find you the on the emotional type Dm Hold on to me, we can hold on for life Gm Tell me how you feel when I say this Gm Our destination is place-less F I never understood what it meant when Dm I said the three words that some people dread Gm That's about as real as it gets Gm I never hold back with my love and intent F I finally figured out what it meant Dm Now there's a spark in my heart times ten Gm Everyday Gm Eight days a week was the song that I'd play F Eight times for me and eight times for the sake Dm Eight times for love and eight times for the way Gm I can remember those days Gm You and every minute wasn't all so strange F See you in the spring when the patience pays Dm I'm strugglin' but hustlin' and lovin' it, always 2x (see top of tab) Gm I wrote to her eighty-five times Gm Sometimes for her, but sometimes for my F Simple collection of lies Dm Sometimes to find the way up in a rhyme Gm I woke up one morning to find Gm It was her first name on a billboard sign F I smiled and said damn what a trip Dm Just yesterday I had a kiss for her lips Gm Well, usually I don't make much of this Gm A sign's a sign it doesn't change it a bit F I choose to stay calm in my sleep Dm Seein' the prize on April nineteenth Gm That was then, I was down to a week Gm Longest seven days of my life so to speak F I sip up my tea so sweet Dm And my head thirsts the girl I've been dying to see, so Gm Everyday Gm Eight days a week was the song that I'd play F Eight times for me and eight times for the sake Dm Eight times for love and eight times for the way Gm I can remember those days Gm You and every minute wasn't all so strange F See you in the spring when the patience pays Dm Gm I'm strugglin' but hustlin' and lovin' it, always 2x (see top of tab) Dm Dm =========================ALTERNATE VERSION================================================ Cm 577555 A# 355433 Gm 079977 Here's the riff after the chorus both in the middle and end of the song: 2x Gm A|0-------0-2-3---3-2-3----2-0----------0-2-----------------3-2-| Note: the riff is also what the horns play at the start of the studio version ========================================================================= | Cm | Cm | A# | Gm | | Cm | Cm | A# | Gm | Cm Next thing I knew we were in deep Cm Hold on to me, 'cause babe I'm 'bout to leave A# She said it never felt so right Gm As the time went by, and I was off in the night Cm Cm She said I don't cry, tonight I cried twice, The thought of you not by my side A# And I find you the on the emotional type Gm Hold on to me, we can hold on for life Cm Tell me how you feel when I say this Cm Our destination is place-less A# I never understood what it meant when Gm I said the three words that some people dread Cm That's about as real as it gets Cm I never hold back with my love and intent A# I finally figured out what it meant Gm Now there's a spark in my heart times ten Cm Everyday Cm Eight days a week was the song that I'd play A# Eight times for me and eight times for the sake Gm Eight times for love and eight times for the way Cm I can remember those days Cm You and every minute wasn't all so strange A# See you in the spring when the patience pays Gm I'm strugglin' but hustlin' and lovin' it, always 2x (see top of tab) Cm I wrote to her eighty-five times Cm Sometimes for her, but sometimes for my A# Simple collection of lies Gm Sometimes to find the way up in a rhyme Cm I woke up one morning to find Cm It was her first name on a billboard sign A# I smiled and said damn what a trip Gm Just yesterday I had a kiss for her lips Cm Well, usually I don't make much of this Cm A sign's a sign it doesn't change it a bit A# I choose to stay calm in my sleep Gm Seein' the prize on April nineteenth Cm That was then, I was down to a week Cm Longest seven days of my life so to speak A# I sip up my tea so sweet Gm And my head thirsts the girl I've been dying to see, so Cm Everyday Cm Eight days a week was the song that I'd play A# Eight times for me and eight times for the sake Gm Eight times for love and eight times for the way Cm I can remember those days Cm You and every minute wasn't all so strange A# See you in the spring when the patience pays Gm Cm I'm strugglin' but hustlin' and lovin' it, always 2x (see top of tab) Gm Gm
