Hold It chords by Marshall Crenshaw

G     C(opt.addG on all of the verse Cs)
(Hold it) Rain on my window
G     C
(Hold it) Michael (Jackson) on my radio
Em Em    Am    Am
Seven Thirty-Seven, the room I'm in
Dsus4         D
This moment won't ever be here again

G     C
(Hold it) Try to remember
G     C
(Hold it) Hold on tight forever
To your life and love every night and day
Dsus4          D
Hold on and don't let it slip away

Dsus2  C     Dsus2    C
     Whenever sadness and darkness
Dsus2  C     Dsus2    C
Threaten to mess up my day
Dsus2  C    Dsus2    C
    When the blues come around me
 Em               D
I throw my hands in the air and I say

G     C
(Hold it) World's in a hurry
G     C
(Hold it) Too many worries
Em   Em      Am    Am
But, I don't want to lose everything I've gained
Dsus4     D
So, I tell myself again and again

G     C
(Hold it) Try to remember
G     C
(Hold it) Hold on tight forever
Em   Em    Am    Am
To your life and love every night and day
Dsus4          D
Hold on and don't let it slip away

Dsus2 C      Dsus2  C
    And whenever somebody tells you
Dsus2  C      Dsus2     C
    That all the good times are through
Dsus2  C        Dsus2  C
    Look into their eyes and tell them
   Em              D
Well, I'm surely glad that I'm not you

G    C
Hold it, Hold it, Hold it
G    C         D  C
Hold it, Hold it, Hold it, Oooh-ooh
G    C
Hold it, Hold it, Hold it
G    C         D  C
Hold it, Hold it, Hold it, Oooh-ooh ...
