Lyrics

Some (G6)times

I these so (G6)walls seem to cave in on (Gmaj7)me.

But when I look in your (Am7)eyes,

I feel a (D)live.

Some (G6)days

we so (G6)say words that don’t mean a (Gmaj7)thing.

But when you’re hold ing me (Am7)tight,

I feel a (D)live.

So now let’s, let’s live it up.

Make it last for ev er; come on, ba by, won’t you hold on to me, (Eb)hold on to me.

You and I to geth er; come on, ba by, won’t you hold on to me, (Eb)hold on to me.

Ooh.

Each (G6)day,

I these so (G6)blessed to be look ing at (Gmaj7)you.

’Cause when you o pen your (Am7)eyes,

I feel a (D)live.

My (G6)heart

we so (G6)damn quick when you say my (Gmaj7)name.

And when I’m hold ing you (Am7)tight,

I’m so a (D)live.

So now let’s, let’s live it up.

Make it last for ev er; come on, ba by, won’t you hold on to me, (Eb)hold on to me.

You and I to geth er; come on, ba by, won’t you hold on to me, (Eb)hold on to me.

Ooh.

Each (Eb)hold on to me.

Ooh.

(Eb)hold on to me.

We got ta hold on.

I got ta hold on.

You’ve got to (Cmaj7)hold on.

You’ve got a (D)hold on,

a hold on me.

We’ve got ta hold on.

I got ta hold on.

You’ve got to (Cmaj7)hold on.

You’ve got a (D)hold on,

a hold on me.

Make it last for ev er; come on, ba by, won’t you hold on to me, (Eb)hold on to me.

You and I to geth er; come on, ba by, won’t you hold on to me, (Eb)hold on to me, Blue.
