[Verse 1]
Am              Fmaj9          Gsus2sus4      Gsus2   Gadd9  Gsus2 
Just when I believed I couldn't ever want for more

Am                 Fmaj9            Gsus2sus4     Gsus2   Gadd9  Gsus2
This ever changing world pushes me through another door

Fmaj9    Am   Fsus2
I saw you smile

      Gsus2sus4       Gsus2     Gadd9        Gsus2
And my mind could not erase the beauty of your face

Fmaj9     Am   Fsus2
Just for awhile

         G6add9       Fsus2   G6add9 
Won't you let me shelter   you
[Chorus]
C      F       G6add9   
Hold on to the nights

C      F       G6add9
Hold on to the memories

C                     F               G6add9
I wish that I could give you something more
That I could be yours Repeat 2nd part of the intro
    Am         Fmaj9

[Verse 2]
Am          Fmaj9               Gsus2sus4      Gsus2   Gadd9  Gsus2 
How do we explain something that took us by surprise

Am          Fmaj9             Gsus2sus4       Gsus2   Gadd9  Gsus2 
Promises in vain, love that is real but in disguise

Fmaj9    Am   Fsus2
What happens now
Gsus2sus4 Gsus2 Do we break another rule
         Gadd9          Gsus2
Let our lovers play the fool

Fmaj9    Am   Fsus2
I don't know how

   G6add9            Fsus2   G6add9
To stop feeling this way
[Chorus]
C      F       G6add9   
Hold on to the nights

C      F       G6add9
Hold on to the memories

C                     F      G6add9
I wish that I could give you more
[Bridge]
         Bm                                A
Well, I think that I've been true to everybody else but me

        Fsus2                         G6add9    
And the way I feel about you makes my heart long to be free

     Bm                               A
Everytime I look into your eyes, I'm helplessly aware
Fsus2 Gsus2sus4 That the someone I've been searching for is right there [Chorus]
C      F       G6add9   
Hold on to the nights

C      F       G6add9
Hold on to the memories

C                     F      G6add9
I wish that I could give you more
