Hanging On Chords & Lyrics - Drive-by Truckers

Intro: [C] [G] x2

Your ma[C]ma can't stand the way [G]
you [G]lay around all day [C]
and [G]lean on her to help you on your way
You [C]use her credit cards [G]
com[G]plain cause it's so hard [C]
to [G]live with all the whiteness you've obtained

[F]Ooooooh [Am]ooooooh [C]oooooh [G]oooooh ooo[D]oh
[F]Ooooooh [Am]ooooooh [C]oooooh [G]oooooh ooo[D]oh

So [C]you pack up all your things [G]
and [G]cut those apron strings [C]
and [G]set out for a drastic change of scene
You [C]hump it town to town[G]
and [G]never let them down[C]
or [G]take the time to ponder what it means

[F]You climb up [Am]to the [C]roof to smoke [G]a [D]few
[F]to calm down [Am]from your [C]day and soak? [G]the [D]view
[F]and you wonder [Am]what the [C]hell you're go[G]nna [D]do
[A]to hang on [E]
[A]to hang on [E]

It [A]isn't any wonder
when the [E]darkness pulls you under
from the [A]weight of all your wonderment
the price [E]you have to pay
is you're [A]feeling kind of sickly
it all [E]come to you so quickly
it's [E]hard to get out from under it

[F] [Am] [C] [G] [D] x3
[G] for a few measures

The [C]night it grows so long [G]
She [G]put it in a song [C]
sud[G]denly the whole world wants to sing
So [C]you move to higher ground [G]
set [G]some deep roots down [C]
[G]and try to keep a grip on everything.

[F]Sometimes [Am]in the [C]silence of [G]the [D]night
[F]the voice might [Am]try to [C]tell you it's [G]not [D]right
[F]So you close your [Am]eyes and [C]try with all [G]your [D]might

[G] for a couple measures

No chord [C]
to hang on
