[Verse 1]
 
G                                      C/G
Baby, close that suitcase you've been packing.
G                               C/G
Just sit down and talk to me a while.
  Am7                                C
I know you tried to tell me what was lacking,
      Am7                               D
But I guess I must have missed it by a mile.
      G                                   C/G
Well, this time girl, I swear to you I'll listen.
G                                C
Help me understand where I went wrong.
G/B    Am7                            C
  It's hard to find myself in this position
Am7                                    D
Scared that I'll go crazy once you're gone.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
N.C.          G                 C
Help me hold on ... to what we had.
                      Am7       D        G
Once our love was strong ... it can be again.
                   G                     C
You said it takes two ... to make love last.
                G/B  Am7        D             G
You were right all along ... so help me hold on.

[Verse 2]
 
G                                  C/G
What have I got to do to make it better?
G                                C/G
What have I got to do to make you see,
     Am7                           C
that even though I promised you forever,
  Am7                             D
I never know how hard that would be?
  G                               C/G
I realized I took your love for granted,
          G                                       C
But I've learned that love worth having don't come free.
G/B    Am7                             C
   And I'll pay any price it takes to keep you
Am7                             D
satisfied and staying here with me.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
N.C.          G                 C
Help me hold on ... to what we had.
                      Am7       D        G
Once our love was strong ... it can be again.
                   G                     C
You said it takes two ... to make love last.
                G/B  Am7        D             G
You were right all along ... so help me hold on.

All the G/B's should be ignored and deleted.

G/B is just the B note on the A string(fret 2), it's a run into the Am7, it is not a chord change. Stike the note right before you change into the Am7.

I think the C/G should be Am7/G
