Hold Her Tight Ukulele by The Correspondents

Chords with lyrics

  • Difficulty: Beginner
🎸 Verse 1:

Am7       Am
A praying mantis prays for prey
C     A7
A lover to decapitate
Am7       Am
And no I don't believe in fate
C     A7
But oh
I think she's found a mate


G          C
It could've happened anywhere
Cm      G
A car park or any square
Am7         G
She doesn't care for scenery
C          A7
When you commit your crimes

🎸 Chorus 1:

A7 Am       C    G
She's got you, so hold her tight
A7 Am       C    G
How have you ended with her tonight?
A7 Am       C    G
Make your morning coffee, make up your lies
A7     C     G      C
Try not to look your wife in the eyes

🎸 Verse 2:

A7         Am
Fight and pull and twist her hair
C          G
For you to hold your breath and stare
C          Cm
For right that went for far too long
C           G
The world as you know it is gone

C       Cm
In preparation for your sin
G        C
You struggle to pull off your ring
G         Am
You pocket it and front a smile
A7         Am7
She knows you're a cliche

🎸 Chorus 1:

A7 Am       C    G
She's got you, so hold her tight
A7 Am       C    G
How have you ended with her tonight?
A7 Am       C    G
Make your morning coffee, make up your lies
A7     C     G      C
Try not to look your wife in the eyes

🎸 Chorus 2:

A7     Am   C    G
(She's got you, so hold her tight)
C       Cm     G  Am
(How have you ended with her tonight)
A7         C    Cm      G
(Make your morning coffee, make up your lies)
C       G   Am    A7
(How have you ended with her tonight)

🎸 Verse 3:

A7         Am
You split your women into two
C          G
One, angels first, then prostitutes
C          Cm
Your wife is going to fly away
C           G
Your lover's going to make you pay

C       Cm
You think you can have it your own way
G        C
Play host at your own cabaret
G         Am
But when the curtain falls
A7         Am7
They leave you spotted and alone

🎸 Chorus 1:

A7 Am       C    G
She's got you, so hold her tight
A7 Am       C    G
How have you ended with her tonight?
A7 Am       C    G
Make your morning coffee, make up your lies
A7     C     G      C
Try not to look your wife in the eyes

🎸 Verse 4:

C             C   G      Am
You thought that you could take a bite of your mind
C     C       G     Am
Many miles away from the day-to-day crime
A7     A7    Cm    Cm
Pure in its dirt the darkness unfold
C      G    C    A7
You've been digging deep to find this gold

A7          Am
It's a lust that tarnishes too quick
C            G
You've done the deed and you feel sick
Cm            G
You smell nothing but an unknown scent
A7               G
You've spent more than you can spare

🎸 Chorus 2:

A7     Am   C    G
(She's got you, so hold her tight)
C       Cm     G  Am
(How have you ended with her tonight)
A7         C    Cm      G
(Make your morning coffee, make up your lies)
C       G   Am    A7
(How have you ended with her tonight)

🎸 Chorus 1:

A7 Am       C    G
She's got you, so hold her tight
A7 Am       C    G
How have you ended with her tonight?
A7 Am       C    G
Make your morning coffee, make up your lies
A7     C     G      C
Try not to look your wife in the eyes

A7 Am       C    G
(She's got you, so hold her tight)
A7 Am       C    G
(How have you ended with her tonight)
A7 Am       C    G
(Make your morning coffee, make up your lies)
A7     C     G      C
(Try not to look your wife in the eyes)
