[Capo] 6th
[Chords] D/F#: 200232 || Am/C: x32210
[Intro] G C G C
[Verse]
C G
Well I'll tell you the truth
C G D/F# Em
As I only do my friend
G
I'll be living my youth
C G D/F# Em
As I live till my end my friend
[Pre-Chorus]
D C
I've been battered and bruised
G C C Am/C Am Em
But it's only a few that have stayed or left
G D
And that's nothing a hammer
Em G C Am/C Am Em
A nail or my mind couldn't cure
D
But I've left people hang
C Am
On a stick or a word
Am G D Em
If their grip grew tight
D
All the bottles, the battles
G D C
The beds that I've shared they're all mine

[Chorus]
G
But the more you hold on to me
Em D C
The less you can have of me
G
The more you hold on to me
Em D C
The less I am yours to keep
[Verse]
G
Well I'll tell you the truth
C G D/F# Em
If that's what you want my friend
G
Sometimes being a friend
C G D/F# Em
Is not saying a word my friend
[Pre-Chorus]
D C
I've been shattered and shoved
G C
And I shattered and shoved
C Am/C Am Em
But my mind is clear
D
And I've chosen my women, my men
G C Am/C Am Em
And I've chosen my fears
D
But I've loved you with the marrow
G D C Am/C Am Em
That fills up my bones and I always will
D
If you are with me or not
G C
All depends if you hold me too near
[Chorus]
But the more you hold on to me
The less you can have of me
The more you hold on to me
The less I am yours to keep
The more you hold on to me
The less I am yours to keep
The more you hold on to me
The less I am yours or me
[Outro]
C Em
There are devils inside
C
That I am not afraid to meet
D C Em
There are devils outside
C
But I am not ashamed to be
G C G
But the more you hold on to me
C G
Yeah the more you hold on to me
C G
I will try not to leave
