Rooney - Holdin' On Tabs

Intro Base Guitar : C G Em D

 C           G               Em                D                       
I was young, Id seen it all. A cemetery in the middle of a super mall.
 C                G                Em            D                          
I went to school. I never learned. How it feels, how everything you love can burn.
 C            G            Em            D                        
And it never stops. Its all I got. And I never know when to turn.
 C           G            Em                D     
Like a merry-go-round it all comes around again.


[CORO]
                  C        G                 Em        D
And I dont know why I'm here, I dont know where Ill go
                  C      G             Em       D
If I dont give it time, how could this garden grow?
            C             G                   B                    Em  
I dont know what I've lost, and I dont know how to get it back
       D         Am
But Im holdin' on
           D
Im holdin on, for as long as I can"

   C          G                 Em                       D
I moved away, I quit the band. I saw it comin it was written on the back of my hand.
C          G             Em                       D
Every day. I could feel. Something' missin' I went home to get a record deal.
C          G                 Em                       D
And my mother said, your theirs to your dead, to them its just another meal.
C          G             Em                   D
Now I'm fat with regret. Im placin' my bet on me.

------- REPEAT [CORO] ---------

A7m (x02010)
Cadd9 (x320xx)
B7m (x24232)


A7m                      B7m
It's not over yet, no, it's not even close
             Cadd9                B7m
My heart is younger, stronger than 100 cowards in a row
              A7m                      B7m
And all my curiosity will keep me asking, "What went wrong?
               Cadd9  
When it's all done, when it's gone,
                                 B
No, it won't be long 'til I'm traveling back in time
To a place when I was mine
