Intro: (D - Em)
D
I left the east side for a west coast beauty
Em
A girl who burned my thoughts like kisses
Em
She was down by street decree
Em F#m G
She swore she'd pull my best years out of me

Fat painted lips on a live wire beauty
Em
A tangerine girl with tambourine eyes

Her face was my favourite magazine

Her body was my favourite book to read

They say that all poets must have and unrequited love

Means letting go of what's not real
D
Holding on to you
A-C - D-F
D
I left the rough side for a seaside baby
Em
A chamomile smile that pouts on cue
Em
For every moment I breathe her sigh
Em
Her bosom contains my sweet alibi
D
In an emotional mist she breathes in fog
Em
And breathes it out as garden flowers
Em
Why me of all the tough talking boys?
Em F#m G
I guess she heard my heartbeat through the noise
G F#m Em D
They say that all poets must have and unrequited love
G F#m Em G
As all lovers must have thought provoking fears

Fat wet lips on a sea salt canvas
Em
Goodbye Picasso hello Dolly/Dali
Em
The soil is fertile where her footsteps trod
Em
She's my new religion she's all I got

Versión 2 - Holding On To You (Letra y acordes)
( Abm F# E B/F# ) 2x
Verso 1:
Abm F#
I'm taking over my body, back in control, no more shotty,
E B/F#
I bet a lot of me was lost, 't's uncrossed and 'I's undotted,
Abm F# E
I fought it a lot and it seems a lot like flesh is all I got,
B/F#
Not anymore, flesh out the door, swat,
Abm F#
I must've forgot, you can't trust me,
E
I'm open a moment and close when you show it,
B/F#
Before you know it I'm lost at sea,
Abm F#
And now that I write and think about it,
E
And the story unfolds,
B/F#
You should take my life, you should take my soul.

You are surrounding all my surroundings,

Twisting the kaleidoscope behind both of my eyes.

Verso 2:
Abm F#
Remember the moment you know exactly where you're going,
E
'Cause the next moment, before you know it,
B/F#
Time is slowing and it's frozen still,
Abm F#
And the window sill looks really nice, right?
E B/F#
You think twice about your life, it probably happens at night,
Abm F#
Right? Fight it, take the pain, ignite it,
E B/F#
Tie a noose around your mind loose enough to breathe fine and tie it,
Abm F#
To a tree, tell it, "You belong to me,
E
This ain't a noose, this is a leash,
B/F# E
And I have news for you, you must obey me."
Pré-Refrão:

You are surrounding all my surroundings,
E Abm B/F# F# C#m/G
Twisting the kaleidoscope behind both of my eyes.

Rap 4x:
Abm
Lean wit it, rock wit it,
F#
When we gonna stop with it,
E B/F#
Lyrics that mean nothing, we were gifted with thought,
Abm F#
Is it time to move our feet to an introspective beat,
E
It ain't the speakers that bump hearts,
B/F#
it's our hearts that make the beat.
