Help Me To Hold On Cifras

[Intro]
C Em C G x 2
 
 
[Verse 1]
       C           Em                C                 G
On the corner of Division Street the weather's gettin' cold
    C                 Em                 C              G
The wind whips by the buildings and they say it's gonna snow
   C               Em          C              G
He sits there on a curbside as sad as sad can be
   C              Em              C               G
It really doesn't matter now what brought his misery
 
 
[Chorus]
G         Em         C              Am         D
He says, "Help me to hold on, don't let me let go
Em             C    Am            D
Lord, it's the only prayer that I know
Em              C             D       Em
It surely ain't much, but I'm down so low
C          Em             D          C
Help me to hold on, don't let me let go"

[Verse 2]
G     C                   Em              C           G
These apartments sure are drafty now, not safe by any means
  C              Em               C           G
Especially for a young girl who's barely seventeen
    C             Em         C                G
Bad choices and a bad man confused inside her head
      C                 Em           C                G
She's about to pull the trigger, but then she prays instead
 
 
[Chorus]
 Em         C              Am         D
"Help me to hold on, don't let me let go
Em             C    Am            D
Lord, it's the only prayer that I know
Em              C             D       Em
It surely ain't much, but I'm down so low
C          Em             D          C
Help me to hold on, don't let me let go"

[Bridge]
G                 C                         Em
Ooohhh....It's so easy to judge, but if you look down deep inside
C                        G             D
You too might remember a time when you cried
 
 
[Chorus]
 Em         C              Am         D
"Help me to hold on, don't let me let go
Em             C    Am            D
Lord, it's the only prayer that I know
Em              C             D       Em
It surely ain't much, but I'm down so low
C          Em             D          C
Help me to hold on, don't let me let go"
