Cold War Kids – Can We Hang On      (Album: L.A. Divine (2017) )

D,    G / D,   G / D,   A

I’ve come here nine times asking you to not make it ten
I’m peeling off all the honor that protected my skin
Apologize, I’m laying down my ego to rest
Would you be mine forever? Just in case it exists
I think about the old days, What we’ve been through to survive
Do we get better with time?, Tell me I’m wrong

Looking back to the start, Who we were when we met
This box of pictures tells a story
When we fight, we forget, And I can barely recognize us
Back then we were obsessed
Can we cut out this madness and get back to the best?
[Chorus]
I’m looking to you always, We follow the same guiding light
Passing like ships in the night, Can we hang on?  Can we hang on?

[Post-Chorus]:    Bm,    G / D,   G / D,   A

                             Can we hang on?  [x4]

[Bridge]
This could’ve gone either way, If one of us had walked
If I’d gone off, and you caved in, And we broke it off
I’d be lost, I’d be chasing some broke down dream
I’d be bored to death, But we cannot stay forever young and out of our heads
Out of our heads
[Chorus 3]
I think about tomorrow,      If I can get through tonight
I know that we’ll be alright,  Can we be strong?
I’m looking to you always,  Even though we’re like ships in the night
Don’t you go passing me by, Can we hang on? Can we hang on?
[Post-Chorus]
D,       G / D,   G / D,    A

Bm,    G / D,   G / D,    A

You can find it;  If you’re dying to live,
If you want to know the secret, hang on, [x4]
