Intro:  /                                  / Baby I guess you know my story   Baby I guess you’ve heard my side / It seems I’ve traded love for glory   But I’m still not satisfied     Given all the years All the cries and cheers Don’t amount to much more than pride    Take my love for you Take tomorrow too There’s not much left inside / How we laughed when we first knew love Singing dum-de-lum-de-lie / I taught you how to see life through love Then I taught you how to fly   And though I must have known How easily love is thrown I took some chances I don’t know why    There’s not much you can do You wish that I’d been true Darlin’ so do I / Now you better hold out Go on and hold out Go ahead and hold out            For what you know love can be     Move on and hold out Don’t let your love be sold out If there’s anyone who knows about it Baby that’s me      Solo:                /                     /      Ahh you’re right    You can’t forget the way I lied    Time has seen you grow To lead your life alone Though you tried and tried Cried and cried Baby I guess you know my story   Maybe there’s not much left to say / You know the more we talk the more we   Turn each other’s hearts away / Now I’ll be leaving in the morning    Leaving half of me behind / To find the pieces life’s been torn in   And take whatever love I find     But you better hold out Go on and hold out Just walk away and hold out For what you know love can be      Move on and hold out Don’t let your love be sold out It’s starting to be cold out          For people who live like me    Move on and hold out And somewhere later no doubt You’ll find another hold out    Someone just like you baby wait and see..
