Terence Trent D'arby – Holding On To You chords
Chords:
DI left the east side for a west coast beautyGA girl who burned my thoughts like kissesEmShe was down by street decreeG D She swore she'd pull my best years out of meDFat painted lips on a live wire beautyGA tangerine girl with tambourine eyesEmHer face was my favourite magazineG DHer body was my favourite book to readD G D They say that all poets must have an unrequited loveG D As all lovers must have thought provoking fearsG DBut holdig on to you means letting go of painGMeans letting go of tearsDMeans letting go of rainC Em GMeans letting go of what's not realDHolding on to youI left the rough side for a seaside baby A chamomile smile that pouts on cue For every moment I breathe her sigh Her bosom contains my sweet alibi In an emotional mist she breathes in fog And breathes it out as garden flowers Why me of all the tough talking boys I guess she heard my heartbeat through the noise They say that all poets must have an unrequited love As all lovers must have thought provoking fears But holding on to you Means letting go of pain Means letting go of tears Means letting go of rain Holding on to you Means letting sorrows heal Means letting go of what's not real Holding on to you They say that all poets must have an unrequited love As all lovers I'm sure must have thought provoking fears But holding on to you means letting sorrows heal Means letting go of what's not real Holding on to you I left the east coast for a west coast beauty a woman who wet my thoughts like kisses she was down down by street decree she swore she'd pull my best years out of me fat wet lips on a sea salt canvas Goodbye Picasso hello Dolly/Dali The soil is fertile where her footsteps trod She's my new religion she's all I got They say that all poets must have an unrequited love as all lovers I'm sure must have thought provoking fears But holding on to you means letting go of tears means letting go of rain means letting sorrows heal It means letting go of pain Enjoy, Klaus Gregaard
