CAPO 1 
 
VERSE 1: 
            D5                        A5 
I dont need whiskey to drown out the pain 
            B5                       G5 
Or some old umbrella to hold off the rain 
             D5                     A5  
Dont have to cross over a river of tears 
E5                       G5  
All that I need is right here 
 
CHORUS: 
        D5 - D5 - D5        G5 
Holding you     holds me together 
             D5 - D5 - D5                     A5 - A5 - A5 
When holding on      gets just a little to hard 
          D5 
When this tight rope I travel 
A5          D5           G5                     E5 
Begins to unravel and I feel like I'm falling apart 
        G5   A5          D5 - D5 - D5 
Holding you holds me together 
 
VERSE 2: 
                         D5                  A5 
You know lifes a freight liner on a runaway track 
                       B5                           G5 
But I'll take the ride knowing that you'll bring me back 
                D5                     A5 
No fates too uncertain no distance to far 
   E5                      G5 
As long as your here in my arms

When holding on      gets just a little to hard 
          D5 
When this tight rope I travel 
A5          D5           G5                     E5 
Begins to unravel and I feel like I'm falling apart

Holding you holds me together

When ever I hold you tight 
G5                        D5                        
This crazy world of mine falls right in place 
G5            G5  
Whatever the trouble is 
G5                      A5                           
You find a way to give back what it takes, Yeahhhh
