Intro: A E7
       D A E7

A
Hey there, darling, let me count on you.
                                             E7
The road is long and Iʼm scared what I might find.
D
Wonʼt you tuck me in at night,
 
Tell me everythingʼs gonna be alright,
      A             E7
Sweet child, sweet child?
 
A
Up in the morning out that door,
                                          E7
Who knows what the world has in store for me?
D
Iʼll be safe with you by my side,
 
Ainʼt nothing out there I canʼt take in stride,
  A       E7
I know, I know!

Chorus:
        F#m     D
    You hold me up,
        F#m     D
    You hold me up
       E7         A
    So I... I can fly.

Instrumental:   E7
              D A E7

A
When that cold creeps on in,
                                      E7
And I start to wonder what could have been.
D
Iʼm just gonna close my eyes so tight,
                                          A
Take your hand and run through the winter light,
                E7
Till the winter light.
    D                  E7
And ainʼt it, ainʼt it bright?

Chorus:
        F#m     D
    You hold me up,
        F#m     D
    You hold me up
        F#m     D
    You hold me up
       E7         A
    So I... I can fly.
