Hold it in love
Am                  G                F
The river in your mouth is pouring out
F
Water takes the
Am        G              F
Shape of all that it surrounds
F
Yeah I know
     Am   G          F
I've been trying so hard to keep in time
     Am         G             F
With all of the hours in your day

[Instrumental]
Am    G    F

[Chorus]
F
Hold it in babe
Am           G            F
Who let you out among the crowd?
F
Not like that
      Am           G        F
These streets will tear you down
How it is
Am G      F
Under my skin, now you are
Am          G               F
Pictures of all you’ll ever be

[Instrumental]
Am    G    F

Today
G      Am     G      F

Hold it in love

Water takes the
Am       G           F
Shape of all that it surrounds

Yeah I know
  Am   G         F
I been trying so hard to keep in time
     Am         G               F
With all of the sounds that you make

Am    G    F

[Chorus]
F
Hold it in babe
Am               G                  F
Come at you from both sides of your mind

Thick and thin these
Am           G               F
Walls you’ll always stand behind

Are sick and tired
     Am          G        F
Oh I beg for the world to change

But it don’t
     Am      G                  F
Oh I lean on you and that’s the thing

[Instrumental]
Am    G    F

G      Am     G      F
I am not myself
C
Today
G      Am     G      F
I am not feeling
C                F
Okay
Am
And you
G                                          F
Showed me hope amidst the harlequins in spring
Am
And you
G                                          F
Told me life was learning how to be your friend
