Holdin' On to You

by Marty Robbins

G                               C

I shouldn't think about you and forget we ever met

G                                        D7

I know these are the things that I should do

G                                C

I never was too smart I guess at least it seems that way

G                               D7                  G

Inside me there's a memory that keeps holding on to you

Just when I think I've crossed that bridge

That's when you cross my mind

G                                                     D7

That little memory's fightin' me it's with me all the time

G                                 C

I guess it takes a little more of what I'm going through

G                                     D7            G

Cause now I feel this memory and it's holdin' on to you

C                                G

Holdin' on to memories ain't the smartest way I know

C                               G

I still have these memories and they won't let me go

G                                 C

I guess it takes a little more of what I'm going through

G                                     D7            G

Cause now I feel this memory and it's holdin' on to you
