Music holds a secret

To know it can make you whole

It’s not just a game of notes

It’s the sounds inside your soul

The magic of the melody

Runs through you like a stream

Notes that play go through you head

 Like a dream . . . Like a dream . . .

 Like a dream

I sing this song for the common man

 For the people in dispair

 I bring my song into the world

 And I sing it everywhere

The simple truth lies waiting here

 For everyone to share

  [open] [open] [open]

So hold on And I will take you there

[open] F#m11 [open] [open]

Hold on And I will take you There

The daily routine takes your soul

Lost without a trace

 It holds you down and turns you ‘round

 And puts you in your place

Another day, another dollar

Another pretty face

 Another chance to lose yourself

In the endless race

Chorus

[open]

Hold on

[open [open]

Hold on to your dreams

[open]

Hold on

[open] [open]

Even though it seems

[open]

Everyone around you

[open] [open]

Has their little schemes

[open]

Listen to your heart

  F#m11 [open]

And hold on to your dreams

[open] [open] [open] 2X

Can't you feel the magic

Feel it everywhere

Can't you hear the music

 There’s something in the air

Join the celebration

Deep within a song

Celebrate these feelings

 You know it can’t be wrong

Chorus

[open]

Hold on

[open [open]

Hold on to your dreams

Everyone around you

Listen to your heart

  F#m11 [open]

And hold on to your dreams

Caught up in routine

 You’ve got to fake it

Time won't wait for us

 We’ve got to make it

Faith gives you the chance

 You’ve got to take it

Take it

Hold on [repeat and Fade out . . .]

Another day, another dollar

Another pretty face

 Another chance to lose yourself

In the endless race
