Standard (EADGBE)

There you have it

You see this love regretting

There's something wrong again

But you had it

In the palm of your hand

Your heart has started bleeding

You gotta get out

You're leaving

You're on your own forever

It's not the space or time or whether

You can leave

You want, you can't have

You need, you can't touch

You plead, it's enough, enough

There's something happening to ya

Love can see right through ya

In a world of make believe

Don't go throwing it all away

Hold on to love

Hold on to love

Treat it as a good thing

Be always ready

With that electric feeling

Chorus

 the whole chorus is played with the bass on . Chords like / are used

You work so hard

To be in love with her

She tries so hard

You gotta let it go

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Riff

 notes]

[The whole song is like this. Follow the same chords to the other verses]

The more and more yo uhear it

The more it seems to make sense

To hold love in the palm of your hand

But you think that round the corner

They're queuing up to hold her

But that won't make a difference in the end

There's never space or time or whether

Yo u can leave

You want, you can't have

You need, you can't touch

You plead, it's enough, enough

There's something happening to ya

Love can see right through ya

In a world of make believe

Don't go throwing it all away

Hold on to love

There's nothing more important

Treat it as a good thing

Be always ready

With that electric feeling

You work so hard

To be in love with her

She tries so hard

You gotta let it go

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

You work so hard

To be in love with her

She tries so hard

You gotta let it go

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on

Hold on to love

There's nothing more important

Hold on to love

Don't let it pass you by

Hold on to love

There's nothing so important

Hold it in the palm of your had

Yeah, yeah

Hold on to love

There's nothing more important

Hold on to love

Don't ever let it pass you by

Hold on to love

Hold on to love

Treat it as a good thing

Treat it as a good thing

Treat it as a good, good thing
