Hold On To Yourself

Am
F - Dm - Am

Am
I'm so far away from you
F
Pacing up and down my room
Dm                             Am
Does Jesus only love a man who loses?
Am
I turn on the radio
F                       
There's some cat on the saxophone 
Dm                      Am
Laying down a litany of excuses
Am
There's madhouse longing in my baby's eyes
F
She rubs the lamp between her thighs
Dm                            Am
And hopes the genie comes out singing
Am
She lives in some forgotten song
F 
And moves like she is zombie-strong
Dm                                    Am
Breathes steady as the pendulum keeps swinging

C - G - Am

Am                          F    Am
You better hold on to yourself

Am
F - Dm - Am

Am
Well, cities rust and fall to ruin
F                            
Factories close and cars go cruisin'
Dm                           Am
In around the borders of her vision
Am
She says ooh
   F
As Jesus makes the flowers grow
Dm                              Am
All around the scene of her collision

              C    G            Am
You know I would,   yes, I would
Am      F          Am
I would hold on to yourself

Am
F - Dm - Am

In the middle of the night 
I try my best to chase outside
The phantoms and the ghosts and fairy-girls
On 1001 nights like these
She mutters open sesame and Ali Baba and his forty thieves
Launch her off the face of the world

You know one day I'll come back and I'd hold on to yourself
To yourself, I'd hold on to yourself

Ooh baby, I'm a 1000 miles away
And I just don't know what to say
Cause Jesus only loves a man who bruises
But darling, we can clearly see
It's all life and fire and lunacy
And excuses and excuses and excuses

Well, you know if I could, I would
I'd lie right down and I'd hold on to yourself
Yeah, I would lie right down and I would hold on to yourself
One day I'll come back to you and I'd hold on to yourself
Yeah, I'm gonna come back, gonna lie down
And I would hold on to yourself
Yeah, to yourself
