[Verse 1]
D/BI feel like a worker bee
A/F#Sittin' all alone in here
EmIn this long deserted hive
D/BAll relations gone to pieces
A/F#I drove the people close to me
EmMiles away outta my sight
D/BAnd now I'm like a naked man
A/F#Standing in the desert tryin'
EmTryin' to sell a messiah for silverA  
[Chorus]
Please hold me Dmaj7back
And don't let me Ggo
When I go Dmaj7crazy
Don't let me gGo
All of my Embridges are crA/F#umbling to Gdust
And you might be the Emonly one that A/F#I can Gtrust
So Aplease hold D/Bon
Em(Hold onto me now)
[Verse 2]
D/BYou were not the first I've seen
A/F#Gettin' eaten from within
BEmeing what you do
It's D/Beasy enough to lose a step or two
A/F#Dodging bullets while building a truce
Don't beat youEmrself up about it
D/BWhat you lost you can't get back
A liA/F#ttle perspective right here in this track
I've seen cEmhildren get sold for silverA  
[Chorus]
I could hold you baDmaj7ck
But I won't treat you sGo
I don't think you're cDmaj7razy
And I won't let you gGo
I'll be the sEmomeone you can A/F#hold oGnto
But I won't be somEmebody holding oA/F#n to yGou
AWeighing you doD/Bwn
(No, no, no, no, no)
[Bridge]
BmDon't have the courage to
ATake another step let alone two
G*
I'll fall into the big black sea
BmSure you can if I can soak in you
ALean on me I will be there
G*                           A  
And it's blue can't you see

I won't let you Dmaj7go
And I won't hold you bGack

Watching your bGack
Never ever let you Dmaj7go

[Verse 1]

D/B

I feel like a worker bee

A/F#

Sittin' all alone in here

In this long deserted hive

D/B

All relations gone to pieces

A/F#

I drove the people close to me

Miles away outta my sight

D/B

And now I'm like a naked man

A/F#

Standing in the desert tryin'

Em A

Tryin' to sell a messiah for silver

[Chorus]

Dmaj7

Please hold me back

And don't let me go

Dmaj7

When I go crazy

Don't let me go

Em A/F# G

All of my bridges are crumbling to dust

Em A/F# G

And you might be the only one that I can trust

A D/B

So please hold on

(Hold onto me now)

[Verse 2]

D/B

You were not the first I've seen

A/F#

Gettin' eaten from within

Being what you do

D/B

It's easy enough to lose a step or two

A/F#

Dodging bullets while building a truce

Don't beat yourself up about it

D/B

What you lost you can't get back

A/F#

A little perspective right here in this track

Em A

I've seen children get sold for silver

[Chorus]

Dmaj7

I could hold you back

But I won't treat you so

Dmaj7

I don't think you're crazy

And I won't let you go

Em A/F# G

I'll be the someone you can hold onto

Em A/F# G

But I won't be somebody holding on to you

A D/B

Weighing you down

(No, no, no, no, no)

[Bridge]

Don't have the courage to

Take another step let alone two

I'll fall into the big black sea

Sure you can if I can soak in you

Lean on me I will be there

G A

And it's blue can't you see

[Chorus]

Dmaj7

I won't let you go

And I won't hold you back

Dmaj7

I'll walk the whole mile with you

Watching your back

Dmaj7

Never ever let you go

And never hold you back

Em A/F# G

I'll be forever someone you can trust

D/B A/F# Em
