C                                 F                  G 
Mother to all people, she's still got some things to prove 
C                                   F              G 
Pressed to find a reason, you know, I could name a few 
       Am              F 
But sometimes I want a baby 
    C              F 
And oh, what can I do 
Dm                             G 
Morning brings another hymn to home 

   C          Dm       
So Hang on to me  
           G            C 
You're the only thing I have 
                Dm   
To wash my body clean  
       G              C 
Oh and guide me on my path 

          F                G 
When they held love like a trophy 
             C                   F 
Like they've never been on their knees 
            Am               Dm 
But when it gets too dark to see 
G                  C 
You always call me back 

C                       F                         G 
I nearly fell to pieces Trying to wear my daddy's shoes 
C                                F                   G 
I'm working on a sequel You know good things come in two 
         Am                 F 
She said your love makes me crazy 
       C                 F 
And someday I'll have to choose 
Dm                                   G 
Lover, that same trouble is just old news 

   C          Dm 
So Hang on to me 
        G                  C 
I'm the only chance you've got 
              Dm 
Set your body free 
       G                     C 
Oh And keep you from falling apart 
   
              F                G 
when they'd held love like a trophy 
             C                   F 
Like they've never been on their knees 
Am                    Dm 
It's a lonely life to lead 
    G                     C 
And I could've spared you that
