[Intro]
---------------------
Dm9 | Em11 | C6/F | G | D9 
Em7 | C6/F | G    

[Verse 1]
---------------------
Dm9             G7       Dm9
   Holding back the years
            G7                       Dm9
Thinking of the fear I've had so long
           G7      Dm9
When somebody hears
          G7
Listen to the fear that's gone
Dm9             G7                 Dm9
   Strangled by the wishes of pater
           G7               Dm9
Hoping for the arms of mater
          G7
Get to me the sooner or later

[Bridge]
---------------------
Dm9 | G7 | Dm9 | G7 

[Verse 2]
---------------------
Dm9             G7       Dm9
   Holding back the years
              G7                           Dm9
Chance for me to escape from all I've known
             G7       Dm9
Holding back the tears
                    G7
'Cause nothing here has grown
Dm9                G7      Dm9
   I've wasted all my tears
           G7         Dm9
Wasted all those years
                G7                   Dm9
And nothing had the chance to be good
         G7
Nothing ever could yeah, oh

[Chorus (1)]
---------------------
Dm9         G7          Dm9
   I'll keep  holding on
         G7          Dm9
I'll keep  holding on
         G7          Dm9
I'll keep  holding on
         G7
I'll keep  holding on

[Solo]
---------------------
   Dm9  G7
So tight

[Verse 3]
---------------------
Dm9 G7  Dm9             G7     Dm9
      I've wasted all my  tears
             G7           Dm9
Wasted all of  those years
                   G7                 Dm9
And nothing had the  chance to be good
                   G7
'Cause nothing ever  could, oh
Oh...

[Chorus (2)]
---------------------
Dm9         G7          Dm9
   I'll keep  holding on
         G7          Dm9
I'll keep  holding on
         G7          Dm9
I'll keep  holding on
         G7
I'll keep  holding on
Holding, holding, holding
Oh

[Outro]
---------------------
Dm9 G7     Dm9   G7  Dm9
      I say   oh yeah
                  G7   Dm9
That's all I have today
                G7
It's all I have to say

[Fade Out]
