  			 G           C 
   Hold it, rain on my window 
 G           C                Em 
   Hold it, Michael on my radio 
    D           C                  Am 
   Seven-three-seven this room I'm in 
                     D 
   This moment won't ever be here again 
 G            C 
   Hold it, try to remember, 
 G           C  
   Hold it, hold on tight forever 
 Em    D             C                    Am 
   To your life and love every night and day 
                      D       C/G 
   Hold on and don't let it slip away 

D C          D           C 
   Whenever sadness and darkness 
D C             G          Am7 
   Threaten to mess up my day 
D C           D          C 
   When the blues come around me 
        Em         C                 D 
   I throw my hands in the air, and I say 

 G           C   
   Hold it, world's in a hurry 
 G            C           Em 
   Hold it, too many worries 
          D             C                    Am 
   But I don't want to lose everything I've gained 
                D 
   So I tell myself again and again 

 G            C 
   Hold it, try to remember, 
 G           C  
   Hold it, hold on tight forever 
 Em    D             C                    Am 
   To your life and love every night and day 
                      D       C/G 
   Hold on and don't let it slip away 

D C        D              C 
   And whenever somebody tells you 
D C               G               Am7 
   That all the good times are through 
D C        D               C 
   Look into their eyes and tell them 
        Em           C              D 
   I'm sure surely glad that I'm not you 

G          C                  D C 
   Hold it, hold it, hold it, ooh! 
G          C                  D C 
   Hold it, hold it, hold it, ooh!
