Hold on, hold on
| ---- | -- -- |
You've got a girl who really loves you
< You've got a girl who really cares >
She'll do anything you ask her to
Yet you treat her wrong
You just string her a[[G/f#]]long
Brother, if I were in your shoes
I would hold on, hold on, hold on tight
And make the whole world know she's mine
I would hold on, hold on, with all my might
love like hers is very hard to find
She does her best to make you happy
< She always does her very best >
You do your best to make her blue
Buddy, you've got it ma-ade
But you'd rather go and [[G/f#]]play
I know one thing for sure, if I were you
I would hold on, hold on, hold on tight
And make the whole world know she's mine
I would hold on, hold on, with all my might
love like hers is very hard to find
She's always there each time you need her
< Each time you need her she is there >
She gives her love so willingly
But you just don't ca-re
You know that she'll be [[G/f#]]there
How I wish she'd felt that way about me
I would hold on, hold on, hold on tight
And make the whole world know she's mine
I would hold on, hold on with, all my might
A love like hers is very hard to find
Hold on, hold on <>
