GDEm7Em7
got the call at five p.m.
GD
your roomate said you left a note
Em7Em7
saying you could use a friend
C2D/F#
so I went to the hospital
Em7Em7
with my heart all choked up tight
C2D/F#
and I prayed while I drove,
Em7Em7
praying you would be alright
GDEm7Em7
that morning you called to talk
GD
you talked about how life was a merry go-round,
Em7Em7
and you wanted to get off
C2D
but I never thought I^?d see you here,
Em7Em7C2D
I never thought I^?d hold your hand
Em7Em7
in your hour of need
C2D
I always thought you^?d cry for help,
Em7C2D
I always thought you^?d understand
Em7Em7C2D
that life is worth fighting for (echo)
Em7C2DEm7Em7
your life is worth fighting for
GDEm7Em7
so you thought no one understood
GD
thought tomorrow would be easier
Em7Em7
if we went on without you
C2D/F#
but my friend, it^?s a lie,
Em7Em7
please hold on, call for help
C2D/F#
my friend, it's your life,
Em7Em7
you're not by yourself
GDEm7Em7
so you're living on the razor's edge
GD
we'll I've - been there myself,
Em7Em7
holding a gun to my head
Repeat-Chorus:
G/B - Am7Em7Em7G/B - Am7GG
(piano solo, note rhythm change marked by -)
G/B - C2
if you hold my hand,
Em7Em7
can you hold on for a moment longer?
G/B - C2
if you know I love you,
GG
does it make it better?
G/B - C2
if you hold my hand,
Em7Em7
can you hold on for a moment longer?
G/B - C2
if you know I love you,
GG
we can make it together ... (repeat and fade)
