Cant Hold On by Jimmy Nail Jimmy Nail - Can't Hold On *Notes* - I like to use Cadd9 (x32033) for the C chords - In the chorus I think Am7 (x02013) sounds better than Am And Em7 (022033) sounds better than Em - I play Dsus4/F# as 200233 And G/B as x20033 - After the first chorus I have just put the lyrics, the chords stay the same for each section, with a couple of slight changes which I have included. Intro and Verses |G D|C | (repeat) G D C It was a kind of town, edge of the universe Nothin' happened there to ever make the news Lived a little boy and a girl next door Had opinions and independent views Am G D They dreamed of nights and big city lights Am G D It helped to kill each dreary day Am G C And all the things that gettin' out would bring Am G D If only they could get away D He say Chorus G Dsus4/F# Em(7) I can't hold on C G/B Am(7) 'cause I'm fee....lin' strong G Dsus4/F# Em(7) but there's so ma.....ny things D C I'm not knowing but the city light didn't burn so bright and the light of day was never warm and the little boy got into one more fight and the girl next door said "I miss my home" Dsus4 D he said "believe in me" Dsus4 D she said "I don't know" Dsus4 D he said "can't you see?" I can't hold on 'cause I'm feelin' strong and there's so many things I'm not knowing and I can't hang round this one-horse town when my soul's tied down, I'm for going G C so the little boy became a broken man with a broken face and broken dreams and the girl next door disappeared one day and in her place was a woman-child I can't hold on, I'm not feeling strong there's so many things that hurt me now and I can't step down from this big cold town where my soul's tied down Repeat Chorus Chords I can't hold on 'cause I'm feelin' strong and there's so many things I'm not knowing www.TAB6.com
