Holdin' On To Something
John Michael Montgomery   John Michael

[C F Bb C F Bb C F Bb   Bb F]

There's a pretty girl wanna make her mine		[C] 
What she wants I don't know				[F Bb]
If red means stop and green means go 			[C]
Her light is always yellow				  	[F Bb]
I'm wrapped around her finger				[F]	 
She's slippin through my hands				[F]
Everytime I think I've got her I've gotta think again	[G]

CHORUS: 
I'm holdin' on to something					[C F Bb]
That keeps lettin' me go					[C Bb F]
Just a whole lot of heartache				[C F Bb]
At the end of my rope					[C Bb F]
I fall a little harder everytime I drop			[G]
But I keep reachin' cause I can't stop			[Bb F]
Holdin' on to something					[C Bb F]
That keeps lettin' me go					[C]

She calls me on the phone says she's all alone		[C]			
Feelin' kinda lonely						[F Bb] 
Say's she can't wait so don't be late			[C]
I promise her I won't be					[Bb Am]
Ten minutes later I'm standin' at her door			[F] 
She's sayin' nevermind I ain't lonely anymore		[G]

CHORUS: 
I fall a little harder everytime I drop			[G]
But I keep reachin' cause I can't stop			[Bb F] 
Holdin' on to something					[C F Bb]
That keeps lettin' me go					[C Bb F]
Just a whole lot of heartache				[C F Bb]
At the end of my rope					[C Bb F]
I keep holdin' on to something				[C F Bb]		
That keeps lettin' me go					[C Bb F]
I'm just holdin' on to something				[C F Bb]
That keeps lettin'      me     go.				[C Bb F]
