Fm                     Bbm
I recall when I first saw you,
C7                                
 Walking on bridge and burning 
   Fm
your hand,
 Fm                     Bbm
You startled as you approached me,
C7                                
 Then you threw little coins into 
    Fm
my cup,

 Bbm                Fm
Why do you hold my hand?
                  C7             
Surely that must mean you do care 
     Fm
for me
 Bbm                Fm
Why do you hold my hand?
                  C7             
Surely that must mean you do care 
     Fm
for me

Fm                      Bbm
You said you'd read my fortune,

C7
 Then you show me a few of your 
dance moves,
                Fm
In the pouring rain,
Fm                   Bbm
You told me of your nightmare,
C7
 Became a skeleton,
Shot the president,
                   Fm
Right between the eyes

 Bbm                Fm
Why do you hold my hand?
                  C7             
Surely that must mean you do care 
     Fm
for me
 Bbm                Fm
Why do you hold my hand?
                  C7             
Surely that must mean you do care 
     Fm
for me
 Bbm                Fm
Why do you hold my hand?
                  C7             
Surely that must mean you do care 
     Fm
for me
 Bbm                Fm
Why do you hold my hand?
                  C7             
Surely that must mean you do care 
     Fm
for me
