Hold Me

C
You told me
Am
You’d hold me
F               G       C
Hold me til the mornin’ light

You craved me
Am
You saved me
F                G           C
Saved me from my own foolish blight

[Alt Chorus]
C
You’re gone now
Am
I’m strong now
F                G           C
Strong enough to cry only at night

C
I see now
Am
It can’t be now
F                G
Now that you’re away, and

[Pre-Chorus]
  F                             Em Am
I wish that I could be like the desert
C        G        Am
He never seems to cry
  F                             Em Am
I wish that I could be like the ocean
C         G            Am
She never needs to ask why

      F
I’m a lonely lady, only
Em           G
Lonely lady only

[Chorus]
C
You told me
Am
You’d hold me
F               G       C
Hold me til the mornin’ light

C
You craved me
Am
You saved me
F              G
Saved me from myself, and

[Pre-Chorus]
  F                            Em Am
I wish that I could be like my father
C         G             Am
He always knew what was right
  F                            Em Am
I wish that I could be like my mother
C          G            Am
She always tucked me in tight

      F
I’m a lonely lady, only
G
Lonely lady only
