E G D F#m
I want the sun to shine on me
I want the truth to set me free
I wish the followers would lead
with a voice so strong it could knock me to my knees
G Bm D E
Hold on world cos you don't know what's coming
Hold on world cos I'm not jumping off
Hold on to this boy a little longer
C G D
Take another trip around the sun
If I jumped into the ocean to believe
If I climbed a mountain would I have to reach?
Do I even dare to speak, to dream, believe?
Give me a voice so strong I can question what I have seen
Hold on world cos you don't know what's coming
Hold on world cos I'm not jumping off
Hold on to this boy a little longer
Take another trip around the sun
