D             G
Music holds a secret

A              G
To know it can make you whole

D               G
It's not just a game of notes

A                           G
It's the sounds inside your soul

Em               A7
The magic of the melody

D                Cadd9  G       D/F#
Runs through you like a stream

Em                 A7
Notes that play go through you head

       Bm                 G
Like a dream . . . Like a dream . . .

       Bm             Asus4    A
Like a dream

E                        F#m11/E
I sing this song for the common man

        Emaj7     F#m11/E
For the people in despair

  E               F#m11/E
I bring my song into the world

      Emaj7        F#m11/E
And I sing it everywhere

E                     F#m11
The simple truth lies waiting here

    D           A
For everyone to share

   E    B[open]     D[open]         A[open]
So hold on      And I will take you there

Hold on     And I will take    you     there
E B[open] D[open] A[open] x3
E
The daily routine takes your soul

D              A
Lost without a trace

   E
It holds you down and turns you 'round

    D                A
And puts you in your place

F#m11         Emaj7
Another day, another dollar

D              A
Another pretty face

 F#m11            Emaj7
Another chance to lose yourself

D              A
In the endless race
[Chorus]
E    B[open]
Hold on

D[open]         A[open]
Hold on to your dreams

E    B[open]
Hold on

D[open]        A[open]
Even though it seems

E         B[open]
Everyone around you

D[open]          A[open]
Has their little schemes

E         B[open]
Listen to your heart

    F#m11    A[open]    E
And hold     on to your dreams
E B[open] D[open] A[open] x2
E
Can't you feel the magic

D            A
Feel it everywhere

E
Can't you hear the music

        D                A
There's something in the air

F#m11        Emaj7
Join the celebration

D             A
Deep within a song

F#m11           Emaj7
Celebrate these feelings

You know it can't be wrong

Everyone around you

Has their little schemes

Listen to your heart

And hold     on to your dreams

E            G
Caught up in routine

              Asus4 A     Asus4 A
You've got to fake it

E                   G
Time won't wait for us

             Asus4 A     Asus4 A
We've got to make it

E                   G
Faith gives you the chance

You've got to take it
