I Can't Hang On

Capo 4


G                 D/F#                            Em         C
Molly Jane is 23, shes graduating from college today, after five long years
G                             D/F#                          Em                Cadd9
Shes ready to be on her own, go out and have a little fun, and not answer to anyone
Cadd9                         C/B
Make no mistake about it, she still thinks of him
    Cadd9                              D
But right now shes wondering where he is

             G           D/F#
He said move on, I cant hang on
            Em                       Cadd9
If you wont meet me in the middle on solid ground
               G              D/F#
Tell me whats wrong, give me something I can work on
       Em                                    Cadd9              G
But if all youve got is you need some time alone, I cant hang on


Molly Jane is finding out that life all alone, is highly overrated
Every guy she goes out with, she compares to him, and she knows that thats not fair
She wants so bad to call him, shes staring at the phone
But shes afraid to find out, that hes already gone

Chorus

Bridge:
Cadd9                              G
She dials up his number like shes done a million times
     Bb                          G
But another voice answers on the other end of the line
           Cadd9                        G
It was the voice of Becky Martin, Molly Janes ex-best friend
             Bb                           A
You see when Molly moved out, Becky moved in

Chorus
