Key: C
Introduction:
C F G
Mother to all people, she's still got some things to prove
C F G
Pressed to find a reason, you know, I could name a few
Am F
But sometimes I want a baby
C F
And oh, what can I do
Dm G
Morning brings another hymn to home
C Dm
So Hang on to me
G C
You're the only thing I have
Dm
To wash my body clean
G C
Oh and guide me on my path
F G
When they held love like a trophy
C F
Like they've never been on their knees
Am Dm
But when it gets too dark to see
G C
You always call me back
C F G
I nearly fell to pieces Trying to wear my daddy's shoes
C F G
I'm working on a sequel You know good things come in two
Am F
She said your love makes me crazy
C F
And someday I'll have to choose
Dm G
Lover, that same trouble is just old news
C Dm
So Hang on to me
G C
I'm the only chance you've got
Dm
Set your body free
G C
Oh And keep you from falling apart
F G
when they'd held love like a trophy
C F
Like they've never been on their knees
Am Dm
It's a lonely life to lead
G C
And I could've spared you that
