Topic: Hold Each Other Tight

Hold Each Other Tight by Jim Kenyon


[G]Nothing’s ever promised , ain’t [C]nothing set in [G]stone


All our days are numbered, just the [C]timing is un[G]known


Our[C] lives can turn upside down, in the blinking of an[G] eye


And [D]what you thought would last for[C]ever, ]just said good[G]bye




.




[G]What if what you cherish, just [C] disappears some[G]day ?


Leaves you with an empty heart, with [C]no words you can[G] say


Oh, [C] what is it that tomorrow holds, no one really [G]knows


so, [D]never take life for [C]granted as we see how fast it [G] goes




.




Chorus


[C]so lay down your sorrows, keep chasing all your [G] dreams


like [D]catching leaves in an autumn breeze, it’s [C]harder than it [G]seems


when you [C]finally find that special someone, be [G]sure to treat them right


open[D] up your heart, and say“ I love you”, an' [C] hold each other [G]tight





.






[G]life can leave you feeling like a [C]boat that’s lost at [G]sea


it happens more than you think, it can [D] bring you to your knees


oh, we [G]face regrets and fear, and hope forgiveness is [C] here at [G]last


find some love before it’s too late, as those [D] fleeting seconds [G] pass


.




Chorus


[C]so lay down your sorrows, keep on [G]chasing all your dreams


like [D]catching leaves in an autumn breeze, it’s [C]harder than it [G]seems


when you [C]finally find that special someone, be [G]sure to treat them right


open[D] up your heart, and say“ I love you”, an' [C] hold each other [G]tight




.


open[D] up your heart, and say“ I love you”, an' [C] hold each other [G]tight


open[D] up your heart, and say“ I love you”, an' [C] hold each other [G]tight

Re: Hold Each Other Tight

Another great tune Jim and a message that is important to remember.     

I want to read my own water, choose my own path, write my own songs

Jim excellent lyrics and the wisdom is what I believe what all the younger generation should hear and think about.

Re: Hold Each Other Tight

A great lesson for these Covid times Jim. There's been a lot of stuff on the news about relationships that can't withstand the pressures of close proximity 24/7.  It's also a life lesson for us retirees suddenly thrust together after 50 years of only seeing your loved one a few hours a day.
You capture it superbly as usual.
