Guitar chords with lyrics

  • Difficulty: Intermediate 💪
Key: Bb

🎸 Intro:

Eb F Bb Eb Gm F  Eb  F

🎸 Verse:
Bb
When I get up she swears that she don't hear it
Bb               Bb/Eb
Says that I'm as quiet as a mouse
Bb
I comb my hair and throw some water on my face
                    Bb/Eb
And back out of the stillness of our house
Bb Bb/Eb Bb  F

Bb
Dishwater days
    Bb/Eb
She says she doesn't notice
Bb                        Bb/Eb
Nothing's changed but the sadness in her eyes
Bb                        Bb/Eb
Maybe it's something that I could have prevented
   Bb
Or maybe the whole damn dream was just a lie

🎸 Chorus:
   Eb                     Gm
Or maybe it's the getting by
Bb                     Eb
Maybe it's the getting by
     Eb              Gm    Eb
It'd swallow up your every step
           F
Boy, if it could
    Eb                      Gm
But maybe it's the stuff it takes
   Bb                      Eb
To get up when the morning breaks
Eb               Gm
Can you hold on?
        F
Can you hold on?
Eb
Can you hold on?
F
Can you hold on
                   Bb    Bb/Eb F  Bb Bb/Eb  F
Till the getting's good?

🎸 Verse:
   Eb
Ya know I believe
   Bb
Ya know I can't deny it
    F                       Bb
But people were told they'd prosper in this land
      Eb                 Bb
Still I know some who've never seen the ocean
   F
Or set one foot on a velvet bed of sand

Bb             Bb/Eb                  Bb
They got their treasure laying way up high
           Bb/Eb                 Bb
But when I look up, all I see is sky
                Bb/Eb
Can you tell me
        F       Bb
Can you tell me why?
                Bb/Eb
Can you tell me
        F       Gm
Can you tell me why?
                Bb/Eb
Can you tell me
        F        Bb
Can you tell me why?

🎸 Bridge:
N.C.                        Bb
When I look up all I see is sky
       Bb/Eb                Bb
When I look up all I see is sky, sky
       Bb/Eb                Bb
When I look up all I see is sky, sky
Bb/Eb                  Gm
Mother can you tell me why, why
       Bb/Eb                 Bb
When I look up, all I see is sky, sky?
Bb      Bb/Eb
When I look up, all I see

🎸 Chorus:
   Eb                     Gm
Or maybe it's the getting by
Bb                     Eb
Maybe it's the getting by
     Eb              Gm    Eb
It'd swallow up your every step
           F
Boy, if it could you know it would you know it
    Eb                      Gm
But maybe it's the stuff it takes
   Bb                      Eb
To get up when the morning breaks
Eb          Gm
And hold on
        F
Can you hold on?
Eb
Can you hold on?
F
Can you hold on
                   Gm    Eb    Bb    Eb
Till the getting's good?

🎸 Outro:
Gm      F         Eb
Can you hold on?
                  F
Can you hold on?

Can you hold on?
                   Bb    Bb/Eb Bb Bb/Eb
Till the getting's good?
Bb
Can you hold on?
Bb/Eb
Can you hold on?
Bb                 Bb/Eb   Bb
Can you hold on?
