Bridge:

A5
all the way
         F5
When you say you're fine
    C5                     G5
But you're still young and out of line,
     A5              F5
When all I need's to turn around
   C5               G5
To make it last, to make it count,
A5                      F5
I ain't gonna make the same mistakes
     C5          G5
That put my mama in her grave
A5            F5   G5
I don't wanna be alone.

Chorus:
         Am             F          C    (C/B)
Hold me down, sweet and low little girl
         Am             F              G         C   (C/B)
Hold me down, sweet and low and I will carry you home,
         Am             F          C    (C/B)
Hold me down, sweet and low little girl
Am         F  G(hold)
Hold me down 
                      (Am)
and i'll carry you home.
