Hold On Partner
Recorded by Roy Rogers (King of the Cowboys) and Clint Black 
Written by Bobby Paine and Larson Paine

A 1991 chart hit, #42 USA and #48 in CAN, for Roy and Clint.  This
put Roy 'back' in the saddle (recording wise) one more time before
he sadly passed away a few years later.

Born:  November 5, 1911 ? Died:  July 6, 1998

He was a genuinely 'nice' man, and a true hero/star to MILLIONS.
He was a prolific singer and actor for many decades, besides all of his
charity work and working for adoption centers.  He talked the talk, and
walked the walk.

*He truly was the silver screen's, 'King of the Cowboys!'*

Played in A (capo on 2nd fret) to play along with the splendid
youtube video.  I play it in (transpose it to) C, sometimes G,
without a capo usually.

 


A
Well you've been trying to get ahead but you're losing ground
    D
And you've been talkin' 'bout leavin' town
   A                                         E7
So hold on partner good things are comin' to you

A
Well you said it yourself you got a lot on the ball
    D
And you'll bounce back each time you fall
    A               E7                        A   A7
Now hold on partner good things are comin' to you

        D
Well it looks like you've been born to lose
    A                               B7
And sometimes it feels that way  oh but don't give up
                    E7
Tomorrow just might be your lucky day

A
So many people and things can get you down
    D
But it only takes one man to turn it around
          A                                         E7
If you'll hold on partner good things are coming to you

A
It's an up and down world and you can't change it
D
Might get a chance to rearrange it
          A               E7                        A    A7
If you'll hold on partner good things are coming to you

Repeat #3

A
Well it's one big race and we're all in it
       D
You're falling behind but you still could win it
          A               E7                        A   D
If you'll hold on partner good things are coming to you 

          A               E7                        A
If you'll hold on partner good things are coming to you 

end.
