Chords
*you can play either version of the intro, the tab is just a visual guide. The Dsus2 chord is also more
accurate in the tab with the x-0-0-2-5-0 (emphasis on the 5 ie. high E to mimic the plucked guitar in the
song)
**Throughout the song, he uses the A Asus4 A Asus4 Dmaj7 D Dsus2 D Dmaj7 progression but to make it appear
cleaner I just typed out A and D chords. The only time he plays the simple A and D progressions without the
sus and maj7 chords is during the last chorus. In other words, an easy way of playing this song is just to use
the chords A and D but a more fun way is to add all of the extra chords :)

[Intro]
A Asus4 A Asus4 A Dmaj7 D Dsus2 D Dmaj7
[Verse 1]
A D She's a flower among the weeds, more beautiful than any rose A D I put the creases in her shoes, she put the crinkle in my nose A D I'll have wrinkles when I'm young, from all the laughing I suppose A D And I'll hold your heart forever, long after I propose
[Chorus]
A D Hold her while you can, cause someday you won't get the chance A D Cherish every moment and all the time you've spent A D Cause this life will all be over, but my love for you won't end F#m D So, I'll hold her while I can, till the one day that I get the chance again
[Interlude]
A Asus4 A Asus4 A Dmaj7 D Dsus2 D Dmaj7
[Verse 2]
A D She's a doll at 83, acting like we both just met A D Reminding me of times, that I swore I'd not forget A D Now I'm 85 years old, alone, lying on this bed A D Missing the sound of her voice and the three words that she once said
[Chorus]
A D Hold her while you can, cause someday you won't get the chance A D Cherish every moment and all the time you've spent A D Cause this life will all be over, but my love for you won't end F#m D So, I'll hold her while I can, till the one day that I get the chance again
[Interlude]
A D A D
[Chorus]
A D Hold her while you can, cause someday you won't get the chance A D Cherish every moment and all the time you've spent A D Cause this life will all be over, but my love for you won't end F#m D So, I'll hold her while I can, till the one day that I get the chance again
