[Verse]
Em C G
Talking like we used to do
Em C G
It was always me and you
Em C G
Shaken up and shippin' out
Em C G
Check me in and check me out
Em C G
Do you like walking in the rain
Em C G
When you think of love, do you think of pain
Em C G
You can tell me what you see
Em C G
I will choose what I believe
[Chorus]
G C/G
Hold on, darling
This body is yours, this body is yours and mine
G C/G
Hold on my darling
(Em)
This mess was yours, now your mess is mine
[Interlude]
Em C G G x4
[Verse]
Em C G
See you in the market place
Em C G
Walking around at 8 AM
Em C G
Got two hours before my flight
Em C G
Luck be on my side tonight
Em C G
You're the reason that I feel so strong
Em C G
The reason that I'm hanging on
Em C G
You know you gave me all that time
Em C G
Oh, did I give enough of mine?
[Chorus]
G C/G
Hold on, darling
This body is yours, this body is yours and mine
G C/G
Hold on my darling
(Em)
This mess was yours, now your mess is mine
[Interlude]
Em C G G x4
[Bridge]
Em C
Bring me to your house and tell me
G D
Sorry for the mess, ''Hey I don't mind''
Em C
G D
You're talking in your sleep, out of time
Em C
G D
Well you still make sense to me, your mess is mine
[Outro]
Em C G G
Em C G G
Your mess is mine
Em C G G
Em C G G
This body is yours and this body is mine
Em C G G
Em C G G
Your mess is mine
Em C G G
Em C G
Your mess is mine

I think in the second verse it's suppose to be "Luck be on my side tonight" not "Rub me on my side tonight". Yeah.
