E F# G G
[Verse]
B
Every street is
C#m
Dark and folding
E Ebm
Out mysteriously
E C#m
Well that's the chance we take
B
To be always working
C#m
Reaching out for
E Ebm
A hand that we can't see
[Chorus 1]
E
Everybody's got a hold on hope
F# B G#m
It's the last thing that’s holding me
[Verse]
B C#m
Invitation to the last dance
E Ebm
And then its time to leave
E C#m B
That's the price we pay when we deceive
One another
C#m
Animal mother
E Ebm
She opens up for free
[Chorus 1]
E
Everybody's got a hold on hope
F# B B
It's the last thing that’s holding me
[Chorus 2]
A
Look at the talk box
Ebm
In mute frustration
E
At the station
E F# G A
There hides the cowboy
[Solo]
B C#m E Ebm E F# B
[Chorus 2]
A
Look at the talk box
Ebm
In mute frustration
E
At the station
E F# G A
There hides the cowboy
[Bridge]
His campfire flickering
G#m E
On the landscape
[Verse]
B
But nothing grows on
C#m
But time still goes on
E Ebm
Through each life of misery
[Chorus 1/Outro]
E
Everybody's got a hold on hope
F# B G#m
It's the last thing that’s holding me
E
Everybody's got a hold on hope
F# B A
It's the last thing that’s holding me
E
Everybody's got a hold on hope
F# B B
It's the last thing that’s holding me
