C                        F
We were ring-around-the-rosy 
     G        C                F 
children, they were circles 
       G
around the sun.
Am          F  Fmaj7        G   
Never give up, never slow down, 
Am         F    Fmaj7      
never grow old, never ever die 
       G
young.
C                       F     G 
Synchronized with the rising 
    C               F      G
moon, even with the evening star,
Am               F  Fmaj7  
they were true love written in 
       G
stone,
Am               F     Fmaj7    
they were never alone, they were
            G          C  F  Am
 never that far apart.
F                             G
And we who couldn't bear to believe 
they might make it,
F                     G
we got to close our eyes.

F                       G        
Cut up our losses into doable 
    F                      G
doses, ration our tears and sighs.
               C                   
Oh, you could see them on the 
        F         G
street on a Saturday night.
C                 F       G
Everyone used to run them down.

           Am          F          
They're a little too sweet, 
Fmaj7            G
they're a little too tight,
Am          F        Fmaj7  G
not enough tough for this town.

C                           F    
Couldn't touch them with a 
    G
ten-foot pole,
C                       F       G
no, it didn't seem to rattle at all.

        Am      F       Fmaj7     
They were glued together body and 
 G
soul,
       Am  F              Fmaj7  
that much more with their backs 
    G          C    F  G  Am  F
up against the wall.

G             Am   F        G   
Oh, hold them up, hold them up, 
 Am       F        G
never do let them fall
Am           F           G      
pray to the dust and the rust 
      Am          F
and the ruin that names us
     G             Am
and claims us and shames us all.

    C                    F       
I guess it had to happen someday 
G       C               F        
soon- wasn't nothing to hold them 
  G
down.
Am          F                     
They would rise from among us like
 Fmaj7    G
 a big balloon,
Am        F    Fmaj7       G
take the sky, forsake the ground.
C              F            G    
Oh, yes, other hearts were 
  C            F         G
broken, yeah, other dreams ran dry
        Am      F   Fmaj7     G 
but our golden ones sail on, 
         Am       F  Fmaj7    G 
sail on to another land beneath 
     C
another sky.
  C          F         G     C  
(Let other hearts be broken, let
         F         G
 other dreams run dry)
        Am      F   Fmaj7
but our golden ones sail on,

 G      Am          F   
sail on to another land beneath 
Fmaj7      G     C   F    G   Am
another sky,
F       G      C       F   E  
beneath another sky.

Hold them up, hold them up, 
Am        F   G        Am    F
hold them up, hold them up, 
       G
hold them up,
A         F
hold them up…

(Hold them up, don't let them fall).
