Hold me now, 'cause I couldn't even if I tried,
CGAmF
It's over now, I guess it really is my time,
CGAmF
I don't wanna go, but it's time I got to say goodbye,
CGAmFFCGAmF
So, hold me me now, 'cause this will be our last time.
CGAmF
I'm slowing down and I don't think that I can fight,
CGAmF
I know some how you'll find a way to live your life,
CGAmF
Remember just to live every day like it's your last,
CGAmF
And hold me now, 'cause I think it's time for me to pass.

I don't want to die, I don't know why,
F5C5
this kind of fate was meant for me.
G5A5
You got to be strong, got to move on,
F5C5
it's not how it was 'sposed to be.
G5A5F5
And what do I say, it was never supposed to end up this way,
C5G5A5F5
What do I have to do, was I supposed to grow old with you?
CG
But that ain't gonna happen, (Riff 1)
FG
No, that ain't gonna happen.
CGAmF
Hold me now, 'cause the time I've got's running out,
CGAmF
No tears allowed, even though we've become without,
CGAmF
I just want to feel your head laying on my chest,
CGAmF
So hold me now, as I take my last breath.
