Just to Hold You.
Capo 2
V1
D
Oh you know me, by reputation
G D
Some have called me a storm about to break.
D
But if you take me, not forsake me,
D A D
I'll hand you my heart in a Golden Cage.
D
For I'll love you, with reckless abandon,
G D
And I've loved you like that from the start.
D
It's my good fortune just to know you.
D A D
Your eyes put wildness in my heart.
Chorus:
G D
Down from the Mountains we come like thunder.
D A
I've lain to long where the cold river runs.
D G
Just to know you, just to flow with you,
D G
Just to grow with you, to reap and sew with you.
D A D
Just to hold you when your hairs undone.
V2
D
Out in the badlands, I am an outlaw,
G D
but I stand on the words of Saint Paul.
D
Though we speak like angels and gain the whole world,
D A D
If we don't have love, we have nothing at all.
D
So if you'll take me, not forsake me.
G D
If you'll help me just as I am.
D
I will love you beyond forever, and,
D A D
Pledge to you my heart on sacred ground.
Chorus:
G D
Down from the Mountains we come like thunder.
D A
I've lain to long where the cold river runs.
D G
Just to know you, just to flow with you,
D G
Just to grow with you, to reap and sew with you.
D A D
Just to hold you when your hairs undone.
Instrumental
V3
D
If I displease you and you don't want me.
G D
I still wish you love for love is blessed.
D
Nothing greater, upon your journey, and,
D A D
rest assured we need to take nothing less.
Chorus:
G D
Down from the Mountains we come like thunder.
D A
I've lain to long where the cold river runs.
D G
Just to know you, just to flow with you,
D G
Just to grow with you, to reap and sew with you.
D A D
Just to hold you when your hairs undone.
(repeat)
D A D
Just to hold you when your hairs undone.
