Living On A Prayer – Jon Bon Jovi

Tone [D
]  
Intro 
[Em C D] … 

 
[Em] Tommy used to work on the docks 
Union's been on strike 
He's down on his luck…it's [C] tough, [D] so [Em] tough 
Gina works the diner all day 
Working for her man, she brings home her pay 
For [C] love [D] for [Em] love 
 
She says we've got to [C] hold [D] on to [Em] what we've got 
'Cause it [C] doesn't make a [D] difference 
If we [Em] make it or not 
We've [C] got each [D] other and [Em] that's a lot 
For [C] love – we'll [D] give it a shot 
 
[Em] Wo[C] oah, we're [D] half way there 
[G] Wo[C] oah, [D] livin' on a prayer 
[Em] Take my [C] hand and we'll [D] make it – I swear 
[G] Wo[C] oah [D] livin' on a prayer 
 
[Em C D
]  
 
[Em] Tommy's got his six string in hock 
Now he's holding in what he used 
To make it talk – so [C] tough,[D ] it's [Em] tough 
[Em] Gina dreams of running away 
When she cries in the night 
Tommy whispers "Baby it's [C] okay, [D] some[Em] day" 
 
She says we've got to [C] hold [D] on to [Em] what we've got 
'Cause it [C] doesn't make a [D] difference 
If we [Em] make it or not 
We've [C] got each [D] other and [Em] that's a lot 
For [C] love – we'll [D] give it a shot 
 
Chorus 
[C] livin’ on a prayer 
[Em C D G C D
]  
[Em] Ooooh we've got to [C] hold [D] on [Em] ready or [D] not 
We’ll [C] live for the fight when it’s [D ] all that you’ve got
