Hold On chords by Dashboard Confessional

Guitar chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse 1:
A                    F#m
She had a history of killing herself
G                D
I had a habit of dying
  A                              F#m
I think she gave me something to live for
  G                           D
I guess I helped her pass the time


Verse 2:
    A                 F#m
And I had a vision of seeing things straight
G                      D
She had the heart of a liar
A               F#m
I never saw her leave me once
G                   D
She never felt me beside her
