Hold On 1987 Transcribed by Dan Nicholas intro.....A E B E A E B E He was a bouncer at a Jungle Pony's bodyshop
           A
She was a night cashier down at the stop & shop

        E
He was kinda good lookin' she was kinda fun

                  B                         E
Down 'neath that big 'ol tree out where the river runs

             A
Cho.. Little Angelyne, little Angelyne

              E
      As the sun goes down & the moonlght shines

                    B
      Back of the greyhound bus sat two lovers entwined

                             E
      Just big Bill & little Angelyne
She was just in from Texas didn't know her way around
       A
So he took her to a roadhouse on the edge of town

              E
There in the beer hall light Lord she looked real fine

        B
It was there he popped the question that was on his mind

          E
It was a simple ceremony just a friend or two

             A
The preacher asked if they do & they said they do

               E
She bought the tickets on her daddy's American Express

            B                  E
Bought the greyhound bus & a wedding dress
Cho.... inst verse.... inst cho....
       E (NC)
In a 6 dollar motel room with his honey bun
For 7 glorious days in the Nevada sun He played the table she pumped the slots full of dimes They came back broke but they had a good time
     E
Now many fell apart in the years come & gone

         A
But Big Bill and little angel they last on & on

       E
They held together when the times looked real slim

           B                        A
Had a boy looked like her & a girl looked like him
Cho.... Cho... Inst Cho... Cho... Cho... Inst Cho... to end.....
