Hold On Tab

’This is the song ¨Hold On¨ by Alabama Shakes from the album ’Boys & Girls’ The song basically alternates between two chords C/G F e|-----0----------1-------| B|-----1----------1-------| G|-----0----------2-------| D|-----2----------3-------| A|-----3----------3-------| E|-----3------------------| [The strumming pattern gets a little different during the bridge, but it’s the same chords. The thing that spices it up is the dynamics from the verse to chords (soft to loud) and the lead guitar that dances around the melodies] (Lyrics) Bless my heart, Bless my soul Didn’t think I’d make it to 22 years old There must be someone up above sayin’ Come on Brittney, You got to come on up
