Holly


Capo On 3 C Am Holly was the kind of girl the cameras liked C Am She could play the part of poet that's kept behind the mic C Am And whilst i've always dreamed of making it in Hollywood C Am I know that if she'd had a second chance then Holly could F C And i did all that i could to help F C Yeah i've done all that i can to help C Am By the time that she was twenty she had driven insane C Am On her way back out she crashed straight into crack cocaine C Am And whilst i'd never once condemed i did not agree C Am That's why i think Holly fell to fall in love with me F C But i did all that i could to help F C Yeah i've done all that i can to help Am F I layed down my anchor C G and i said let's make a stand F G 'Cause i'm leaving only when C i've done all that i can C Am She cleaned her act up burnt her shackles and chains C Am And she rid herself of men who used their fists for their brains C Am And she cotched upon a couch within the neighbors' space C Am Til she'd saved enough to pay the lease on her own place F C But i did all that i could to help F C Yeah i've done all that i can to help C Am She used to brush past all the students of art C Am She said they're masters of their craft but i am far too smart C Am And i've always fancied studying humanitites C Am And she passed with first-class honours in philosophy F C But i did all that i could to help F C Yeah i've done all that i can to help Am F I layed down my anchor C G and i said let's make a stand F G 'Cause i'm leaving only when C i've done all that i can C Am A car was being naughty down a one-way street C Am And it crushed her brittle bones right from her head to her feet C Am And as i knelt over her body and i prayed to god C Am I lost faith in everything that ever has been oh F C But i did all that i could to help F C Yeah i've done all that i can to help Am F I layed down my anchor C G and i said let's make a stand F G 'Cause i'm leaving only when C i've done all that i can
