I Hold Your Hand In Mine Chords

(ver. 1)
Tom Lehrer
   G - Gm - D - B7 - Em - A - D  - A7 - - -
 
        A             A7          D                   A      A7      D
 I hold your hand in mine, dear, I press it to my lips,
      F#                    Bm                   E               A       - A7
    I take a healthy bite from your dainty fingertips.
 
           A             A7          D                  A            A7     D      - B7
My joy would be complete, dear, if you were only here,
           G      Gm           D     B7      Em         A      D    - A7
    but still I keep your hand as a precious souvenir.
 
           Bb                       F               C                        F
    The night you died I cut it off, I really don't know why,
           Bb                      F                  E               E7       A     - A7
    for now each time I kiss it, I get blood stains on my tie.
 
            A      A7     D                         A             A7             D     - D7
I'm sorry now I killed you, for our love was something fine,
            G        Gm          D        B7       Em            A           D
    and 'til they come to get me, I shall hold your hand in mine.
