INTRO
Verse:

the rain is gonna fall, the sun is gonna shine,
the wind is gonna blow, the waters gonna rise,
she said, when that day comes look into my eyes,
but no ones giving up quite yet, we’ve got too much to lose,

Chorus:

hold me down, sweet and low little girl
hold me down, sweet and low and i will carry you home,
hold me down, sweet and low little girl,
hold me down…. …and i’ll carry you home.

Bridge:
F#m D A E (Palm Mute)

and i’ll carry you all the way,
when you say you’re fine,
but you’re still young and out of line,
when all i need’s to turn around,
to make it last, to make it count,
i ain’t gonna make the same mistakes,
that put my mama in her grave,
i don’t wanna be alone…

Chorus:
INTRO:
