Intro: E-B-A/F#-A

Verse 1: E-B-A/F#-A

Accidentally, on purpose
I dropped my watch behind the tire
Threw my alarm clock inside the fireplace
Yeah, and I put the parental control on,
On the news and the weather channel
I’m outside in my robe I’m looking for you, oh

Refrain:
C#m
If everything’d stop
B
I’d listen for your heart
A
To lead me right to you, yeah
I tried every way I can

Chorus:
E
But it’s harder to hold on
B
to your hands and the hands of time
A/F#
I need a hand, girl, I’m trying to hold on
A
Losing strength in these hands of mine
I need you here

C#m
I’m trying to hold on
B
Standing here, open hands and I
A/F#
Know I can’t do this alone
A
Hold on, oh hold on
E B
Lemme hold on (hold on to my hands)
A/F#
Hold on to my hands (don’t let go of my hands)
A
Don’t let go

Verse 2: E-B-A/F#-A

I don’t think this is working
Freezing so hard my hands are hurting
Ought to let go in the first place
And I put the phone on the front lawn
Everything that shows time is gone
I’m outside in this cold
Still looking for you
