Stephen Sanchez - Hold Her While You Can

[Intro]

A D Esus4 E
[Verse 1]
A
She’s a flower among the weeds
D Esus4 E
More beautiful than any rose
A
I put the creases in her shoes
Dmaj7 D Esus4 E
She put the crinkle in my nose
A
I’ll have wrinkles when I’m young
Dmaj7 D E Esus4 E
From all the laughing I suppose
A
And I’ll hold your heart forever
D E
Long after I propose, oh

[Chorus]
A
Hold her while you can
D E
‘Cause someday you won’t get the chance
A
Cherish every moment
D
And all the time you spend
A D
‘Cause this life will all be ovеr, my love for you won’t end
F#m
So I’ll hold her whilе I can
D A Dmaj7 D
‘Til the one day that I get the chance again

[Verse 2]
A
She’s a doll at 83
Dmaj7 D
Acting like we both just met
A
Reminding me of times
Dmaj7 D
That I swore I’d not forget
A
Now I’m 85 years old
D
Alone lying on this bed
A
Missing the sound of her voice
D
And the three words that she once said

[Chorus]
A
Hold her while you can
D
‘Cause someday you won’t get the chance
A
Cherish every moment
Dmaj7 D
And all the time you spend
A D
‘Cause this life will all be over, my love for you won’t end
F#m
So I’ll hold her while I can
Em D
‘Til the one day that I get the chance again

[instrumental]

A D A D

[Chorus]
A
Hold her while you can
D
‘Cause someday you won’t get the chance
A
Cherish every moment
D
And all the time you spend
A D
‘Cause this life will all be over, my love for you won’t end
F#

So I’ll hold her while I can
D Dmaj7 D
‘Til the one day that I get the chance again
