Am G D

Am D


Verse:
Am    D         G
Here I stand without an answer
Am    D        G
Reaching out to feel your hand
    Em        G        C       C
And I try to find the courage that can keep me hanginʼ on
  Am    D      G
You help me be a better me
  Am  D         G
So many left without a goodbye
   Am   D      G
A thousand miles in between

       G       Em         G          C
I could not have made the change without your push in the right direction
   Am D       G   G  C
Lift me up, help me escape


Chorus:
Am         G         D          C
All the years of hell that seem to fall right by the wayside
   Am         G       D       C
And All the times Iʼve needed someone to believe in me
   Am       G         D        C
To think about the odds that youʼd be sharing in this love
 N.C.
I hope you hang around awhile

Am     D         G
Here you stand with your defenses
Am       D                G
Build them up and build them strong
    Em         G               C
Itʼs alright to let them soften as I hold you close at night
  Am   D         G
No need to hide a thing from me

 Am      G       D         C
Hang around so you can see me take my second chances

Hang around so you can help me wish on one more star

Hang around so we can take this love and make it shine
N.C.
I hope youʼll hang around a while
