Intro:
A augmentedA

Verse 1:
A augmentedA
The sky busted wide open
D MajorD      E MajorE         A augmentedA
In the early morning 'fore the dawn

And the raindrops on the window pane
D MajorD             E MajorE
Reminded me of nights back home

D MajorD
It's funny how a memory
               A augmentedA   A/G# F# minorF#m
Sometimes can cut you to the bone
    E MajorE E7E7      A augmentedA
Hanging On, Hanging On

Verse 2:
A augmentedA
The town of Santa Fe
D MajorD         E MajorE        A augmentedA
Had the smell of wood smoke in the air

She lived by herself
D MajorD             E MajorE
Sold her paintings on the square.

D MajorD
We shared the nights together
            A augmentedA  A/G#  F# minorF#m
Until the feeling was gone
    E MajorE E7E7      A augmentedA    E MajorE  E7E7 A augmentedA
Hanging On, Hanging On


Bridge:
D MajorD
Two people come together
                 A augmentedA
Knowing what they want from the start
E MajorE
They give their bodies freely
                   A augmentedA
But keep their distance with their hearts

D MajorD
But a heart left untended
            A augmentedA   A/G#  F# minorF#m
Sometimes can turn into stone
    E MajorE E7E7      A augmentedA
Hanging On, Just Hanging On

Verse:
A augmentedA
A majorA man needs a woman
D MajorD       E MajorE       A augmentedA
More ways than he could ever know

But sometimes he takes it lightly
D MajorD              E MajorE
Let's the fire burn down too low

D MajorD
When he goes to the bank of chances
            A augmentedA  A/G# F# minorF#m
He finds that he is overdrawn
    E MajorE E7E7    A augmentedA
Hanging On, Hanging On
    E MajorE E7E7      A augmentedA
Hanging On, Just Hanging On

Solo & Fade:
