Im Still Holding On

E        Am   C F
How many times
E                Am     C F E
Have I been here before?
Am              C                   F E
Like a worn away piece of the night
E               Am  C F E
Waiting for the dawn

Dm
Daylight breaks
Am                    F
And the dream is gone
F             E
Leaving me to stay
    Am                   C F E
But I'm still holding on
       Am            C F E
I'm still holding on           | x3
E             Am
Still holding on


[Bridge]
(Palmmute and crescendo)
Am x4


[Verse]
  Am      C            F
I used to think I knew
E                       Am C F E
Just exactly what I took
Am           C            F
You move in, fast and hard
    E                 Am  C F E
And you make your own luck

Dm
Daylight breaks
Am                    F
And the dream is gone
F             E
Leaving me to stay
    Am                   C F E
But I'm still holding on
       Am            C F E
I'm still holding on           | x3
E             Am
Still holding on

[Bridge]
(Palmmute and crescendo)
Am x4


[Instrumental]
Strum each cord for 8 1/8 notes, sounds best with only down strums
E Am E Am Dm Am F E


[Verse]
  Am     C          F
I see it better now
          E                Am    C F E
Smell the tears upon this tracks
Am                          C         F
It's a long long way before it's over
E                     Am
And what you give out
                     C F E
Is what you get back

Dm
The easy way out
Am                            F
It will bite you hard someday
F
You see me smile and learn
E
I find a better way


    Am                   C F E
But I'm still holding on
       Am            C F E
I'm still holding on           | x3
E             Am
Still holding on

[Outro]
    Am                   C F E
But I'm still holding on
       Am            C F E
I'm still holding on           | x3
E             Am
Still holding on
