Intro
D# G# D#/C G# x2
[Verse 1]
D# Gadd9
I was looking down at you smiling underneath
D#/C G#
For once I held you tight, but shadowed hands grabbed at me
D# Gadd9
You're head was in the clouds, now those clouds are in your head
D#/C A#
It's when you needed me, so I listened to what you said
[Pre-chorus]
D#/C G#
Look another year went by,
D#/G
They keep passing by,
A#
But damn I didn't even die,
D#/C G#
Too old and slow I've grown,
D#/G A#
I fought time but lost
[Instrumental]
D# Gadd9 D#/C G#
[Verse 2]
D# Gadd9
It was love like a callus you scarred enough to be
D#/C G#
Tough and immune, your body adapts you see
D# Gadd9
To all above my head, and all below my feet
D#/C A#
Know that's one freedom you'll never take from me
[Pre-chorus]
D#/C G#
Look another year went by,
D#/G
They keep passing by,
A#
But damn I didn't even die,
D#/C G#
Too old and slow I've grown,
D#/G A#
I fought time but lost
[Chorus]
D# A# D#/G G#
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here
D# A# D#/G G#
With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear
[Break]
D#/C Gadd9 D# A#
Hold tight, hold tight
D#/C Gadd9 D#/G A#
[Chorus]
D# A# D#/G G#
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here
D# A# D#/G G#
With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear
D# A# D#/G G#
To criticize and judge, how did I end up here
D# A# D#/G G#
With these standards I'm forced to love, make me disappear
D# A# D#/G G#
Hold tight, hold tight, hold tight, hold tight

Look another year went by, hold tight, hold tight
