Guided By Voices – Hold on Hope
Intro:
Every street is
Dark and folding
Out mysteriously
Well that's the chance we take
To be always working
Reaching out for
A hand that we can't see
Everybody's got a hold on hope
It's the last thing that’s holding me
Invitation to the last dance
And then its time to leave
That's the price we pay when we deceive
One another
Animal mother
She opens up for free
repeat chorus (end on B instead of G#m)
Look at the talk box
In mute frustration
At the station
There hides the cowboy
Solo:
Look at the talk box
In mute frustration
At the station
There hides the cowboy
His campfire flickering
On the landscape
But nothing grows on
But time still goes on
Through each life of misery
Everybody's got a hold on hope
It's the last thing that’s holding me
Everybody's got a hold on hope
It's the last thing that’s holding me
Everybody's got a hold on hope
It's the last thing that’s holding me
