Intro

G         D          C            C
pillars of highway keep on pulsing
G         D          C            C
and something gray hangs in the air
G         D          C            C
lead your shadow to the strip mall
G         D          C            C
pay the girl to bleach your hair
G         D          C            C
you stare out through the driver?s side for some connection
G         D          C            C
and give a smile but she don?t care


G         D          C            C
oh give me back the part of me that?s gone
G         D          C            C
just sing me something full of grace right now
G         D          C            C
please hold me ?cause i can?t keep holding on
G         D          C            C
holding on
G         D          C            C
holding on 


G         D          C            C
picture-perfect parties, so many bosses sailing in
G         D          C            C
with their eyes that look right through you
G         D          C            C
talk and patience wearing thin
G         D          C            C
you?re beloved in this family
G         D          C            C
just until the bids stop coming in 


G         D          C            C
give me back the part of me that?s gone
G         D          C            C
just sing me something full of grace right now
G         D          C            C
please hold me ?cause i can?t keep holding on
G         D          C            C
holding on
G         D          C            C
holding on 



C            C            C            C
there?s still truth being shouted from the playgrounds
G            G            G            G
but cross the street and find the color line?s still drawn
E            E            E            E
it?d be nice to think that we?re all going somewhere
G            G            D            D
keep on moving ?til you lay your dead dreams down 


[Fidle Solo]
G         D          C            C


G         D          C            C
smiling lily serves up coffee with ?hard rain? playing softly? 
G         D          C            C
the australian speaks italian as he goes
G         D          C            C
and the actors sit in circles telling stories as the sun crawls
G         D          C            C
up the mountain down the canyon, painted rose
G         D          C            C
there?s a song i left in new york i couldn?t hold
G         D          C            C
she?s swinging in the park ?til i get home 


G         D          C            C
give me back the part of me that?s gone
G         D          C            C
just sing me something full of grace right now
G         D          C            C
please hold me ?cause i can?t keep holding on
G         D          C            C
holding on
G         D          C            C
holding on
G         D          C            C
I can?t keep holding on
G         D          C            C
holding on
