Verse 1
Dm 
65 in Massachusetts,
Am 
Alice at the beach
Dm 
Young kid drowning, she jumps in
Am 
and pulls him from harm's reach
Dm 
She goes right to the middle of it,
she goes right to the middle of it
Am 
And here is the strangest thing,
are you listening?
Dm 
This is the riddle of it,
this is the riddle of it
Ten years later that boy from the sea
Am 
Dm 
saves a man who can't swim
It's Alice's husband
When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
Am 
There'll be something that
you can't explain
Dm 
When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
Am 
There'll be something you
can't give a name
E 
Dm 
January, New York morning
Am 
Hudson clear below
Dm 
Sullen burger, dams the silence
Am 
His heart's an ancient door
Dm 
He goes right to the middle of it
He goes right to the middle of it
Am 
And here is the strangest thing
Are you listening?
Dm 
This is the riddle of it
This is the riddle of it
He lands that bird like a fly on a pond
Walks the length of it twice
Till he knows that he's done
When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
Am 
There'll be something that
you can't explain
Dm 
When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
Am 
There'll be something you
can't give a name
F 
So you just hold on
E 
You just hold on
Am 
You don't know what good is coming
D 
You don't know what good can do
Dm 
F 
Yeah, you just hold on
E 
You just hold on
Am 
See all that good that's coming
D 
It's coming just for you
Dm 
F 
Yeah, you just hold on
E 
Dm 
Am 
Dm 
Am 
You just hold on
Dm 
When you think you've
got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
Am 
There'll be something that
you can't explain
Dm 
When you think you got it figured out
When you think you know
what life's about
Am 
There'll be something you
Dm 
can't give a name
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Am 
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Dm 
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Am 
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Dm 
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Am 
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holdin' on, keep holdin'
Keep on holding on, keep on
Dm 
Keep on holding on, keep on
