                             Hold On - The Shore

Tabbed by: TastyWheat


This is my favorite song from thier self-titled debut.  I'm very surprised
this band doesn't have more recognition.  This is the first tab by the Shore
on this website and I couldn't even find any lyrics for the band. I
transcribed these lyrics myself.  This is a very nice ballad and should appeal
to fans of the Verve, Oasis, Coldplay, etc.  Listen to the song for the timing
(if you can find it that is, I had to buy it).

Intro:
C


Verse:
C
I been livin' all these years
        F
Just to grow another fear
      Am
And I feel the otherside
       G
Of you leaving


       C
We can go where we belong
      F
Aging rivers move along
        Am                      G
And the breath of our hearts is dying


         F              Em
Lord I'm needing you so much
   F                Em
So afraid of losing touch
          F       Em        G
Don't you feel it    when I say


Chorus:
     F           Am    Em
Baby please hold on to it
     F           Am    Em
Baby please hold on to it
     C
Oh


Verse:

Running through another day
             F
Watching the tide roll away
        Am                    G
And the ocean of our lives is fadin'

      C
And I try to feel the light
          F
Pass thru darkness in the night
           Am
We're both changin'
          G
Can't you see?

         F              Em
That I'm needing you so much
        F             Em
Come so far to lose a touch
       F          Em        G
Better believe me    when I say


Chorus:
     F           Am    Em
Baby please hold on to it
     F           Am    Em
Baby please hold on to it
     C
Oh
