[D#m] [B] [F#] x2
Verse:
[D#m] Don't lie, [B] I know you've been thinking [F#] it
[D#m] And two times, [B] you let it slip from your [F#] lips
You've got [D#m] too much [B] pride to make any [F#] promises
Thinking that we [D#m] got time, [B] and you want to keep it [F#] in

[D#m] I want you out in the [B] pouring rain
[F#] I want you down on your [C#] knees
[D#m] Prayin' to God [B] that I feel the same
[F#] I'm right here, baby, [C#] so please
Chorus:
[D#m] Hold me up, [B] tie me down
[F#] 'Cause I never wanna [C#] leave your side
[D#m] Swear to never [B] let you down
[F#] And it's been eatin' [C#] me alive
[D#m] You can take me [B] home
You can [F#] never let me go [C#]
[D#m] Hold me up, [B] hold me up [F#]
And [C#] tie me, tie me [D#m] down, [B] down [F#] (down)
And [C#] tie me, tie me [D#m] down, [B] down [F#]
And [C#] tie me, tie me [D#m] down, [B] down [F#] (down)
And [C#] tie me, tie me [D#m] down, [B] down [F#] [C#]
Verse:
[D#m] Nine lives [B] until you fall at my feet [F#]
[D#m] Don't hide, [B] you're wasting your energy [F#]
[D#m] You're not shy, [B] so baby, it's useless [F#]
So [D#m] don't try, [B] 'cause you'll end up losin' it [F#]

And I'll put my [D#m] hands around [B] your neck [F#] [C#]
'Cause [D#m] nobody wins [B] these waiting games
You [F#] push and you pull, [C#] but you should [D#m] stay [B]
Stay [F#] [C#]
[D#m] Hold me up, [B] tie me down
