Waylon Jennings – Hangin On (Guitar)

A
The sky busted wide open

D            E                  A
In the early morning 'fore the dawn

D                          E
Reminded me of nights back home

D
It's funny how a memory

                              A     A/G#  F#m
Sometimes can cut you to the bone

        E  E7            A
Hanging On,  Hanging On

A
The town of Santa Fe

D                 E                A
Had the smell of wood smoke in the air

D                         E
Sold her paintings on the square.

D
We shared the nights together

                       A   A/G#   F#m
Until the feeling was gone

        E  E7            A       E   E7  A
Hanging On,  Hanging On

D
Two people come together

                                 A
Knowing what they want from the start

E
They give their bodies freely

                                     A
But keep their distance with their hearts

D
But a heart left untended

                        A     A/G#   F#m
Sometimes can turn into stone

        E  E7            A
Hanging On, Just Hanging On

A
A man needs a woman

D              E             A
More ways than he could ever know

D                            E
Let's the fire burn down too low

D
When he goes to the bank of chances

                        A    A/G#  F#m
He finds that he is overdrawn

        E  E7       A
Hanging On, Hanging On

        E  E7            A
Hanging On, Just Hanging On
