Hands

Gm       F  A#
Hi, Rachel, just wanted to say hi
D#Maj7                  F     Gm
And I hope everything's going well for you
                 Gm                    F   A#
And you're have, having a good time in New York?
                      D#Maj7
So, sorry I missed you
F            Gm
If you get a chance, sweetie, call me

[Verse 1]
         Gm                     F       A#
You were early every weekday to take me home
                        D#Maj7     F          Gm
Your car was always the closest to Washington Road
       Gm                             F        A#
Like a blanket, I was wrapped in your arms, so warm
                      D#Maj7       F          Gm
They say Boston's the coldest, but I wouldn't know

[Pre-Chorus]
             Gm                                 F       A#
There was no falling down without you 'round to pick me up
       D#Maj7                               F         Gm
And no tears that fell without your help to change my luck
        Gm                             F          A#
And you taught me so much, I could not learn fast enough
             D#Maj7       F
About how to love someone wholeheartedly

[Chorus]
D#Maj7        A#              F           Gm
You soldiered storms that you never spoke of
D#Maj7     A#             F         Gm
Built up a world that was all about us
   D#Maj7     A#          F               Gm
If I close my eyes, I can still feel your touch
    D#Maj7
The warm, steady shake of two hands
                 Gm  F A#
That love me too much
                 D#Maj7  F Gm
That love me too much

[Verse 2]
         Gm                      F    A#
You took over for your family at just 16
                   D#Maj7         F       Gm
Putting words onto paper, working tirelessly
          Gm                               F
You said, "Your life should just be easy, love
     A#
I've worked enough for all of us
     D#Maj7                    F         Gm
Just smile and shoot for stars above and breathe"

[Pre-Chorus]
                    Gm                                 F       A#
'Cause there was no falling down without you 'round to pick me up
       D#Maj7                               F        Gm
And no tears that fell without your help to dry them up
        Gm                             F          A#
And you taught me so much, I could not learn fast enough
             D#Maj7       F
About how to love someone wholeheartedly

[Chorus]
D#Maj7        A#              F           Gm
You soldiered storms that you never spoke of
D#Maj7     A#             F         Gm
Built up a world that was all about us
   D#Maj7     A#          F               Gm
If I close my eyes, I can still feel your touch
    D#Maj7
The warm, steady shake of two hands
                 Gm  F A#
That love me too much
                 D#Maj7  F Gm
That love me too much

[Bridge]
      Cm                              A#
Can I hold your, can I hold your hand forever
                 Gm                       F
And never let it go? I might never let it go
          Cm                          A#
And can I ask you, can I ask you everything
                    Gm
That I ever want to know?
And, Nana, can you show me how to

[Chorus 2]
D#Maj7      A#             F         Gm
Soldier big storms and not ever give up?
    D#Maj7     A#            F         Gm
And build up a world that is all about love?
    D#Maj7       A#            F          Gm
And not close my eyes when the water gets rough?
        D#Maj7
To have warm steady hands just like you
                 Gm  F A#
That love me too much
                 D#Maj7  F Gm
That love me too much
                Gm  F A#
That I'm worthy of
                 D#Maj7  F Gm
That love me too much

[Outro]
                 Gm
That love me too much
          F            A#
It was so nice to see you at my party
           D#                   F          Gm
And having you sit with me, and we were so close
                Gm
That I'm worthy of
                               F      A#
And you were singing the song, I'm so excited
                 D#Maj7
That love me too much
So anyway, honey, I love you so much
F
Okay, now it's goodbye
