verse 1 :
C F Am G
it’s a kind of lust thing , really ,
C F Am G
a little bit of brief wandering .
C F Am G
and it started out two hearts , cold , kids with nothing
C F Am G
to lose .

chorus 1 :
C F Am G
but it’s the hold tight , hold steady ,
C F Am G
hold tight , see where it goes .
C F Am G
just a little bit , just a little bit , just a little bit daunting ,
C F Am G
this you can’t erase , this will not be scared , in the eye
C F Am G C F Am G
of the storm .

verse 2 :
C F Am G
in the moonlight , we walked
C F Am G
in the park at night .
C F Am G
we played go – olf , under statues
C F Am G
of lennon , our hearts bound for breaking at dawn .

C F Am G
just a little bit , just a little bit , just a little bit over
C F Am G C F Am G
again .
