  			I Hold On 
G                       C            G   
Like a flame that never dies, I hold on for you 
  G              C                D 
I flicker in the wind but I still burn for you 
  Em       CG    
A reflection in the mirror is gone 
       Am  D   G 
Like a widow to her lover I hold on 

       G           C               G 
Like a leaf in mid October I still change for you 
     G                    C                     G 
I'd fall on the cold hard ground in the pouring rain for you 
  Em              C          G  
I used to move on easy I was strong 
   Am              D                 G 
I know I shouldn't linger but I hold on 

    G                    C                 G 
So paint a picture of my memory to hold on to 
     G                  C               D  
Just remember I was the one that you belonged to 
   Em                C               G                        
My heart is pouring out here in this song,  
       Am              D             G              
like a song without an ending I hold on 
    Em               C               G                      
My heart is pouring out here in this song,  
       Am           D            G 
like a widow to her lover I hold on
