Biography:
The Holdup formed in autumn of 2006 when Guitarist Tyler Scurti and Drummer Danny Flores added, Mike Garmany as Lead Vocalist. The Holdup quickly began writing music and started performing at small local gigs. It didn’t take long for the Holdup to gain a steady fanbase and local attention. Later that year, they added a few more members to the holdup team, Kyle Christensen on Bass, Clev Stiles on management and recently Keyboardist Nick Santana. The chemistry and fit were undeniable and The Holdup was complete.

WAIT FOR ME
Album: Leaves on the Pool
Mike taught me how to correctly play this song on a instagram live.
Csus4 and F are played on 8th fret
[Verse 1]
Bb A7
I’ve always had one foot out the door
Dm
I don’t wanna play this game no more
Csus4
I don’t wanna let you down
F7
I don’t wanna see you drown
Bb A7
I’ve always had one hand on your heart
Dm
The other one pulling us apart
Csus4
I don’t wanna let you go
[Chorus]
Bb
Why do you wait for me
Am
And let me hurt you
Dm
Why can’t I set you free to someone
Csus4 F7
Who deserves you
Bb
Don’t tell me that you’re fine
Am
Don’t say it’s worth it
Dm
I might spend my whole life
Csus4
In search of something perfect
[Verse 2]
Bb
Give me all your love, give me all your time
A7 Dm
And I’ll show you how to carefully throw it away for sure
‘Till there’s no more
Csus4 F7
You’ll never get it back no no no no no no
Bb
Please don’t ask me how I say nice things
Am
When I know right now what the future brings
Dm
I know damn well that this ain’t my dream
Csus4 F7
But somehow I still don’t know what it means
Bb
Sitting in the car trying to tell you that you’re wrong
Am
Tell you that you’re crazy but you knew it all along
Dm
I put that on, I never meant to try and put you on
Csus4
How did you stay here so long
[Chorus]
Bb
Why do you wait for me
Am
And let me hurt you
Dm
Why can’t I set you free to someone
Csus4 F7
Who deserves you
Bb
Don’t tell me that you’re fine
Am
Don’t say it’s worth it
Dm
I might spend my whole life
Csus4
In search of something perfect
[Verse 3]
Bb
It ain’t crazy that I want you
A7
But it’s crazy that I got you
Dm Csus4
Even crazier I take for granted everything
F7
I used to worship
Bb
Now it’s obvious my dreams are yelling out to me
Am
And I paid a couple shrinks to spell it out for me
Dm
There’s no way for this to go without a casualty
Csus4 F7
I just can’t imagine me ever having apathy for you
Bb Am
Tell me what else I need to know
Dm
I got your unconditional
Csus4
Devoted affection and
I ain’t learned my lesson yet
[Solo]
