Baby Hold On


Here's another song to start a sing-a-long at parties when the crowd begins die down. This is also another great song for beginners since about 90% of the song derives from your simple D chord; so the only thing to worry about is the strumming pattern, which I will show you. If you have any problems with the timing, just listen to the song. When you have made your judgement please rate. The beat is in 4/4 and it's pretty fast and it's in standard tuning. Strumming pattern: D=down U=up D D U U D 1 2 &(3)& 4 Chords: low E A D G B E D:X X 0 2 3 2 D*:X X 0 3 3 2(I checked my chord book and I couldn't find the name) D6:X X 0 2 0 2 D7:X X 0 2 1 2 Em7:0 2 2 0 3 0 F#m7:2 4 2 2 2 2 Gmaj7:3 2 0 0 0 2 A7sus4:X 0 2 0 3 3 A7:X 0 2 0 2 0 Intro: D D* 4 times Chorus: D D* Baby hold on___ to me__ D D* Whatever will be__ will be__ D D* The future is ours___ to see__ D D* So baby hold on___ to me__ Verse 1: D D* Baby, what's these things D D* You've been sayin' about me behind my back__ D D* Is it true you might want a better life D6 D7 Is it true you think these things__ I like, now Pre-chorus: Em7 F#m7 Think about it baby Gmaj7 A7Sus4 A7 I'm gonna take you to the top_____ Chorus: D D* Baby hold on___ to me__ D D* Whatever will be__ will be__(cause) D D* The future is ours___ to see__ D D* So baby hold on___ to me__ hey baby Verse 2: D D* You know the future's lookin' brighter D D* Every mornin' when I get up D D* Don't be thinkin' 'bout what's not enough, now baby D6 D7 Just be thinkin' 'bout what we got Pre-chorus: Em7 F#m7 Think of all my love, now Gmaj7 A7Sus4 A7 I'm gonna give you all I got_____ Chorus: D D* So baby hold on__ to me_ D D* Whatever will be__ will be_ D D* The future is ours__ to see_ D6 D7 When you hold on___ to me Verse 3: Em7 F#m7 Oh___, rich man or poor man______ Gmaj7 A7 Really don't mean all that much_____ Em7 F#m7 Mama's always told you girl, Gmaj7 A7 That money can't buy you love____________ Chorus: D D* So baby hold on__ to me_ D D* Whatever will be__ will be_ D D* The future is ours__ to see_ D D* When you hold on___ to me yeah, eh D D* Baby hold on___ to me_ D D* Whatever will be___ will be_ D D* The future is ours___ to see_ D D* When you hold on___ to me_ Bridge: D (It the D chord once and just palm mute the strumming pattern) I said Uh!
