Verse 1:
G+G           C majorC           G+G
She's thinking about the prince and Cinderella
                       C majorC
And the outlaws, and the hustlers, and the heroes
           G+G
That never seem to fall
 G+G               C majorC
It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter what
           G+G
The outcome of the story is
 G+G               C majorC
Because in real life I try to tell her
           D MajorD
It's not like that at all

Chorus:
       E minorEm        D MajorD
Oh, won't you please just hold out now
          E minorEm             D MajorD
'Cause there's some things I'd like you to forget
     C majorC              G+G
When your world is sinking like a sunset


Verse 2:
G+G          C majorC        G+G
Tales of Don Juan, they're very poetic, babe
                 C majorC
But out on the streets out there
               G+G
The true verse of life is written
G+G
You know it's really a shame
      C majorC              G+G
When you've got to let go of all the things you love
 G+G
Like a fighter he really bleeds
     C majorC         D MajorD
When he must hang up his gloves


Chorus:
     E minorEm          D MajorD
No I am not a rock and I can feel it now
      E minorEm          D MajorD
But for a moment, I'd like to forget
     C majorC             G+G
That my heart is sinking like a sunset

B minorBm          C majorC
Na na na na na na na na

Everybody has a story
      E minorEm          D MajorD

        D MajorD
Right next to me

     G+G            C majorC
You can walk too far out on that ledge
        G+G
And you might lose your mind

You know I need you now
      C majorC           G+G
You're the angel that keeps me in line

 G+G             C majorC
The old sergeant has broken down
       G+G
He's grown senile
 G+G                      C majorC
He shouts, "kill the bastards!" in the night
             D MajorD

So don't hold out, let's make love right now

Won't you hold me now and make things alright
