Hangin On Chords & Lyrics - Waylon Jennings

[INTRO]
[A]

[VERSE 1]
[A]The sky busted wide open
[D]In the early [E]morning 'fore the d[A]awn

And the raindrops on the window pane
[D]Reminded me of nights back [E]home

[D]It's funny how a memory
Sometimes can cut you to the b[A]one [A/G#] [F#m]
Hanging [E]On,[E7] Hanging On [A]

[VERSE 2]
[A]The town of Santa Fe
[D]Had the smell of w[E]ood smoke in the [A]air

She lived by herself
[D]Sold her paintings on the [E]square.

[D]We shared the nights together
Until the feeling was g[A]one [A/G#] [F#m]
Hanging [E]On,[E7] Hanging On [A] [E] [E7] [A]

[BRIDGE]
[D]Two people come together
Knowing what they want from the s[A]tart
[E]They give their bodies freely
But keep their distance with their he[A]arts

[D]But a heart left untended
Sometimes can turn into [A]stone [A/G#] [F#m]
Hanging [E]On,[E7] Just Hanging [A]On

[VERSE]
[A]A man needs a woman
[D]More ways than [E]he could ever [A]know

But sometimes he takes it lightly
[D]Let's the fire burn down too [E]low

[D]When he goes to the bank of chances
He finds that he is over[A]drawn[A/G#] [F#m]
Hanging [E]On,[E7] Hanging [A]On
Hanging [E]On,[E7] Just Hanging [A]On

[Solo & Fade]
[D] [A] [E] [A]
[D] [A] [A/G#] [F#m]
[E] [E7] [A]
