Hold On Tight Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

 They say it Cain’t safe to go out anymore,

 So the Empolice station has bolted up the door,

 The Amfloor’s full of torn up betting stubs,

 They Fput televisions in my favourite pubs,

 So our Chomes get bulldozed, no-one watches,

 They Emwant soap operas and not soap boxes,

Am This town has left me high and dry,

F But I’ll be here til the day I die,

Am They tell me I’m just pissed off,

F Yeh maybe I’m pissed off,

Am I’d rather be pissed off,

F Than be pissed on,

C So if the Emworld burns down outsAmide,

 And they Fbattle on the frontline,

C My darling I’ll Emhold on tight,

Am My darling I’ll Fhold on tight,

As the world burns down outside,

And they battle on the frontline,

My darling I’ll hold on tight,

My darling I’ll hold on tight,

We beg for another show we can watch til we’re sick,

Just like a donkey chasing a carrot on a stick,

Watching our lives filmed in a soft focus,

With abracadabra and hocus pocus,

One billion channels and there’s still nothing on,

The television will not be revolutionised, the announcer says,

“And now for something completely indifferent”,

 Cos DmI demand my rock ‘n’ roll with blood, sweat and tears,

 And CI demand my reggae to cause bleeding in my ears,

 I demand my Empunk rock to start a revolution,

 I demand my Fhardcore to sound like an execution,

 I demand Dmsoundsystems on the streets playing the loudest tracks,

 I Cdemand no rent, no bills, no council tax,

 I demand Emlove that isn’t measured by the Frelationships of characters on Friends,

G Or the words to some dire R&B song about what a good man, what a mighty mighty good

is,

So as the world burns down outside,

And they battle on the frontline,

My darling I’ll hold on tight,

My darling I’ll hold on tight.
