Capo On 3

Holly was the kind of girl the cameras liked
C Am
She could play the part of poet that's kept behind the mic
C Am
And whilst i've always dreamed of making it in Hollywood
C Am
I know that if she'd had a second chance then Holly could
F C
And i did all that i could to help
F C
Yeah i've done all that i can to help
C Am
By the time that she was twenty she had driven insane
C Am
On her way back out she crashed straight into crack cocaine
C Am
And whilst i'd never once condemed i did not agree
C Am
That's why i think Holly fell to fall in love with me
F C
But i did all that i could to help
F C
Yeah i've done all that i can to help
Am F
I layed down my anchor
C G
and i said let's make a stand
F G
'Cause i'm leaving only when
C
i've done all that i can
C Am
She cleaned her act up burnt her shackles and chains
C Am
And she rid herself of men who used their fists for their brains
C Am
And she cotched upon a couch within the neighbors' space
C Am
Til she'd saved enough to pay the lease on her own place
F C
But i did all that i could to help
F C
Yeah i've done all that i can to help
C Am
She used to brush past all the students of art
C Am
She said they're masters of their craft but i am far too smart
C Am
And i've always fancied studying humanitites
C Am
And she passed with first-class honours in philosophy
F C
But i did all that i could to help
F C
Yeah i've done all that i can to help
Am F
I layed down my anchor
C G
and i said let's make a stand
F G
'Cause i'm leaving only when
C
i've done all that i can
C Am
A car was being naughty down a one-way street
C Am
And it crushed her brittle bones right from her head to her feet
C Am
And as i knelt over her body and i prayed to god
C Am
I lost faith in everything that ever has been oh
F C
But i did all that i could to help
F C
Yeah i've done all that i can to help
Am F
I layed down my anchor
C G
and i said let's make a stand
F G
'Cause i'm leaving only when
C
i've done all that i can
