Hold On
 Hayden McGlinn
 Capo 3

[Verse 1]
Em           C              G          D
You’ve been along a long and lonesome road
 Em     C   G   D
Been treated so bad
 Em       C            G            D
You turn to things to try to make you happy
 Em     C         G          D
Only to find they make you so sad

[Verse 2]
Em            C          G           D
The fella you meet you thought he was your true love
 Em           C          G           D
He turned out a drunk and hurt you so bad
 Em          C            G                D
Times they were tough you stuck it out for so long
 Em           C                G           D
Tried to forge a love and getting nothing in return,

[Chorus]
C                         Bb9
Hold onto your dreams and never let them go
 Am                               F
The thoughts in your mind from a seed in which they grow
 C                    Bb9            G
A tree that bears the fruit of love and tenderness
 Am                    F             G
Like the mother of a child has the love for evermore

[Verse 3]
Em              C          G           D
He lost you somewhere when you drifted apart
 Em          C          G               D
You moved away and took something from his heart
 Em         C           G           D
There came the time when he called you up
 Em           C         G            D
There was no answer at the end of the line.

[Chorus 2]
C                              Bb9
Hold onto your dreams and never let them go
 Am                              F
The thoughts in your mind from a seed in which they grow
 C                             Bb9
A tree that bears the fruit of love and tenderness
 Am                              F
Like the mother of a child has the love for evermore

[Bridge]
G                   F              Am
He reached out for you but you were gone
 G             F           Am
Losing you and he lost his way
 G             F            Am
Searching all the places and listening for your voice
  G                     F
Talking to himself wishing you could hear

[Solo]
Em C G D
Em C G D
Em C G D
Em C G D

[Chorus 3]
C                              Bb9
Hold onto your dreams and never let them go
 Am                              F
The thoughts in your mind from a seed in which they grow
 C                             Bb9
A tree that bears the fruit of love and tenderness
 Am                              F
Like the mother of a child has the love for evermore


[Verse 4]
Em            C          G          D
Then one day it clicked inside his head
 Em          C           G           D
Stop this way of life stop drinking instead
 Em         C           G            D
Get on with your life get yourself together
 Em         C           G            D
Go and get on track you’ve got to move on

[Chorus 4]
C                              Bb9
Hold onto your dreams and never let them go
 Am                              F
The thoughts in your mind from a seed in which they grow
 C                             Bb9
A tree that bears the fruit of love and tenderness
 Am                              F                     C
Like the mother of a child has the love for evermore
