The Judge - Holding On To You

Am F C Dm
Am F C

Am          F  C
Na na na na oh oh
            Dm Am
Na na na na oh oh
            F  C
Na na na na oh oh

[Verse 1]

Am                              F    C
When the leader of the bad guys sang
                             Dm   Am
Something soft and soaked in pain
                                 F    C
I heard the echo from his secret hideaway

Am                               F   C
He must have forgot to close his door
                               Dm    Am
As he cranked out those dismal chords
                            F     C
And his four walls declared him insane

[Pre-chorus]

  Em
I found my way
      B
Right time wrong place
     Dm        G
As I pled my case

[Chorus]

           F         C
You're the judge, oh no
       G  Am
Set me free
           F         C
You're the judge, oh no
       G  Am
Set me free
  F               G
I know my soul's freezing
       C            Am
Hell's hot for good reason
   F           Am
So please take me

[Verse 2]

Am          F  C
Na na na na oh oh
            Dm Am
Na na na na oh oh
            F  C
Na na na na oh oh

Am *                                      F *
Three lights are lit but the fourth one's out
      C *                                                Dm *
I can tell cause it's a bit darker than the last night's bout
  Am *                                           F *
I forgot about the drought of lightbulbs in this house
          C *
So I head out, down a route i think is headed south
            Am                                        F
But I'm not good with directions and I hide behind my mouth
      C                                                 Dm
I'm a pro at imperfections and I'm best friends with my doubt
    Am                                                F
And now that my minds out and now I hear it clear and loud
              C
I'm thinking "wow, I probably should have stayed inside my house

[Pre-chorus]

  Em
I found my way
      B
Right time wrong place
     Dm        G
As I pled my case

[Chorus]

           F         C
You're the judge, oh no
       G  Am
Set me free
           F         C
You're the judge, oh no
       G  Am
Set me free
  F               G
I know my soul's freezing
       C            Am
Hell's hot for good reason
   F
So please

(HOLDING ON TO YOU)

[Intro]

Am G F C x2

[Verse 1]

Am
  I'm taking over my body
 G
Back in control, no more shotty
   F
I bet a lot of me was lost
 C
"T"'s uncrossed and "I"'s undotted
Am                           G                              F
  I fought it a lot and it seems a lot like flesh is all I got
                C
Not any more, flesh out the door, swat
Am                       G
  I must'a forgot, you can't trust me
     F
I'm open a moment and close when you show it
    C
Before you know it I'm lost at sea
Am                                  G
   And now that I write and think about it
                  F
And the story unfolds
                    C
You should take my life
                   Am       G                 F    C
You should take my so - o - o - o - o - oul
Am        G                  F     C
oh - oh - oh - oh - oh - oh

[Pre-chorus]

F             Am     C           G
  You are surrounding all my surroundings
  F                 Am       C
Sounding down the mountain range
        G         F
Of my left-side brain
            Am     C           G
You are surrounding all my surroundings
  F            Am     C
Twisting the kaleidoscope
         G
Behind both of my eyes

[Chorus]

Am        G
oh - oh - oh - oh - oh - oh
F                            C
  And I'll be holding on to you    x2

[Verse 2]

Am
  Remember the moment
           G
You know exactly where you're goin'
            F
'Cause the next moment before you know it
 C                               Am
Time is slowin' and it's frozen still
                     G
And the windowsill looks really nice, right?
F                               C
   You think twice about your life
                               Am
It probably happens at night, right?

            G
Fight it, take the pain, ignite it
        F
Tie a noose around your mind
        C
Loose enough to breath fine and tie it
Am
   To a tree tell it,
 G                              F
You belong to me, this ain't a noose
                            C
This is a leash and I have news for you, you must obey me!

[Pre-chorus]

F             Am     C           G
  You are surrounding all my surroundings
  F                 Am       C
Sounding down the mountain range
        G         F
Of my left-side brain
            Am     C           G
You are surrounding all my surroundings
  F            Am     C
Twisting the kaleidoscope
         G
Behind both of my eyes
         G
Behind both of my eyes

[Bridge]

Am  G  C  F

(Repeat x2)
Am             G
Entertain my faith
C              F
Entertain my faith

(Repeat x2)
     Am
Lean with it, rock with it
        G
When we gonna stop with it?
       F
Lyrics that mean nothing
                    C
We were gifted with thought
            Am
Is it time to move our feet
            G
To an introspective beat
                      F
It ain't the speakers that bump hearts
                     C
It's our hearts that make the beat

[Chorus]

Am        G
oh - oh - oh - oh - oh - oh
F                            C
  And I'll be holding on to you    x4
