[Verse]
Dm7                  Eb       
Weight of love on my shoulders
Dm7                        Ebmaj7          
I thought that it would be easier than this
Dm7                          Ebmaj7 Eb
I thought my heart had grown colder ■ 
Gm7 Dm7                    Ebmaj7              
■   But the warmth of your kiss I can't dismiss
          Dm7              Ebmaj7 
Though my past has left me bruised
        Gm7    Dm7      Ebmaj7 Eb
I ain't hiding from the truth  ■ 
         Gm7   Dm7          Ebmaj7            C   C7
When the truth won't let me lie right next to you ■ 


[Chorus]
         Bb        
But it's holding on
         Gm7           
And it's holding strong
Eb                            
Even though I tried to make it

Played the part but I can't fake it
         Bb        
It keeps holding on
         Gm7           
And it's holding strong
     Eb       Ebmaj7           
Even though I tried to break it
F                                 
Heaven knows that I can't shake it
Dm7     C    Gm7 Am7
Holding ■ on ■   ■
