Intro

G5         D5          C5            C5
pillars of highway keep on pulsing
G5         D5          C5            C5
and something gray hangs in the air
G5         D5          C5            C5
lead your shadow to the strip mall
G5         D5          C5            C5
pay the girl to bleach your hair
G5         D5          C5            C5
you stare out through the driver?s side for some connection
G5         D5          C5            C5
and give a smile but she don?t care


G5         D5          C5            C5
oh give me back the part of me that?s gone
G5         D5          C5            C5
just sing me something full of grace right now
G5         D5          C5            C5
please hold me ?cause i can?t keep holding on
G5         D5          C5            C5
holding on
G5         D5          C5            C5
holding on 


G5         D5          C5            C5
picture-perfect parties, so many bosses sailing in
G5         D5          C5            C5
with their eyes that look right through you
G5         D5          C5            C5
talk and patience wearing thin
G5         D5          C5            C5
you?re beloved in this family
G5         D5          C5            C5
just until the bids stop coming in 


G5         D5          C5            C5
give me back the part of me that?s gone
G5         D5          C5            C5
just sing me something full of grace right now
G5         D5          C5            C5
please hold me ?cause i can?t keep holding on
G5         D5          C5            C5
holding on
G5         D5          C5            C5
holding on 



C5            C5            C5            C5
there?s still truth being shouted from the playgrounds
G5            G5            G5            G5
but cross the street and find the color line?s still drawn
E5            E5            E5            E5
it?d be nice to think that we?re all going somewhere
G5            G5            D5            D5
keep on moving ?til you lay your dead dreams down 


[Fidle Solo]
G5         D5          C5            C5


G5         D5          C5            C5
smiling lily serves up coffee with ?hard rain? playing softly? 
G5         D5          C5            C5
the australian speaks italian as he goes
G5         D5          C5            C5
and the actors sit in circles telling stories as the sun crawls
G5         D5          C5            C5
up the mountain down the canyon, painted rose
G5         D5          C5            C5
there?s a song i left in new york i couldn?t hold
G5         D5          C5            C5
she?s swinging in the park ?til i get home 


G5         D5          C5            C5
give me back the part of me that?s gone
G5         D5          C5            C5
just sing me something full of grace right now
G5         D5          C5            C5
please hold me ?cause i can?t keep holding on
G5         D5          C5            C5
holding on
G5         D5          C5            C5
holding on
G5         D5          C5            C5
I can?t keep holding on
G5         D5          C5            C5
holding on
