You can never hold back spring
Tom Waits

E/G#   B   E
E             B         C#m    A
You can never hold back spring
           E                 B     C#m          A
You can be sure I will never stop believing
A                          E
The blushing rose, it will climb
A                      E
Spring ahead or fall behind
A                                   F#m
Winter dreams the same dream, every time
     E             B7         E
Baby you can never hold back spring

E                              Asus4   A
Even though you've lost your way
             F#m                   Ab/B#   Ab
The world is dreaming, dreaming of spring

C#m           Abm
So close your eyes
E6         B6
Open your heart
A                            F#m    F#m7/E
To the one who's dreaming of you
E                B7     Cdim  C#m     A
And you can never hold back spring
         E               B     Cdim  C#m   A
Remember everything that spring can bring
     E             B7    Cdim  C#m   A
Baby you can never hold back spring
     E             B7     B/A  E
Baby you can never hold back spring


I think my guitar was dropped one full step when i tabbed this...
If you play this on piano you?re probably better off just changing the bass in some 
(E6 B6 - C#m/E Abm/B) but these chords work very well on the guitar.
