[Intro]
Bm G D
[Verse 1]
Bm G D
Don't lie, I know you been thinking it
Bm G D
and two times, you let it slip from your lips
Bm G D
You've got too much time to make any promises
Bm G D
Thinking that we got time, and you wanna keep it in
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm G
I want you out in the pouring rain
D A
I want you down on your knees
Bm G
Praying to God that I feel the same
D A
I'm right here baby, so please
[Chorus] x4
Bm G
Hold me up, tie me down
D A
'Cause I never wanna leave your side
Bm G
Swear to never let you down
D A
And it's been eating me alive
Bm G
You can take me home
D A
You can never let me go
Bm G D
Hold me up, hold me up
A Bm G D A
And tie me, tie me down, down
[Verse 2]
Bm G D
Nine lives until you fall at my feet
Bm G D
Don't hide, you're wasting your energy
Bm G D
You're not shy, so baby it's useless
Bm G D
So don't try, 'cause you'll end up losing it
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm G
I want you out in the pouring rain
D A
I want you down on your knees
Bm G
Praying to God that I feel the same
D A
I'm right here baby, so please
[Chorus] x4
Bm G
Hold me up, tie me down
D A
'Cause I never wanna leave your side
Bm G
Swear to never let you down
D A
And it's been eating me alive
Bm G
You can take me home
D A
You can never let me go
Bm G D
Hold me up, hold me up
A Bm G D A
And tie me, tie me down, down
[Bridge]
Bm G D A
So wrap your arms around my chest
Bm G D A
And I'll put my hands around your neck
Bm G
'Cause nobody wins these waiting games
D A Bm G
You push and you pull, but you should stay
D A
Stay
[Chorus] x4
Bm G
Hold me up, tie me down
D A
'Cause I never wanna leave your side
Bm G
Swear to never let you down
D A
And it's been eating me alive
Bm G
You can take me home
D A
You can never let me go
Bm G D
Hold me up, hold me up
A Bm G D A
And tie me, tie me down, down
[Outro]
Bm G D A
Down, down
Bm G D A
