G
Baby, now don't look back

C
Don't let those feelings start

G
Don't let the line go slack, when you're

C
pulling it all apart.

D
How to describe the sky

       C
or dis-mantle a beating heart?
[Chorus]
G                        Em
Guess we're just holding on

G                   Em
Baby, we're holding on

G                    D
Honey, we're holding on

       C
to the world.
[Verse 2]
G
Seeking assurances,

C
some kind of guarantee.

      G
There has to be more than this, oh now

C
More than the eye can see.

D
Holding the lanterns high, while we

C
sink with our vanity.
[Chorus]
G                        Em
Guess we're just holding on

G                   Em
Baby, we're holding on

Honey, we're holding on

to the world.
[Bridge]
C             D
Now I'm gonna love you

         G                      C
Like the spring bursts from the ground,

C                G
Falling from the ground,

C                Em      C
Falling from the ground
[Verse 3]
G
Faces of buildings, trees,

C
All that is stoned, inert

G
Here in these empty streets, well it

C
silently does assert, that

D
we are just passing ghosts, honey,

C
vapors of joy and hurt
[Chorus]
     G                   Em
And, here we are holding on

G                   Em
Baby, we're holding on

G                    D
Honey, we're holding on

       C
to the world.

G
Baby, we're holding on

C
Oh yeah, we're holding on

G
Hey now, we're holding on

C
Baby, we're holding on

G                   Em
Here we are holding on

G                   Em
Baby, we're holding on

G                        D
Guess we're just holding on

       C
to the world.

G                   Em
Baby, we're holding on

       C
to the world.
