                 Cm7                 Bb7/D           D#m
He gives another smile, tries to understand her side
                G#7                           Cm7
To show that he cares, she can't stay in the room
         Bb7/D         D#m                          G#7
She's consumed with everything that's been goin' on

She says

(refrão)
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand

                     Cm7               Bb7
Everything will be alright, he assures her
D#m                                  G#7
But she doesn't hear a word that he says
        Cm7             Bb7
Preoccupied, she's afraid
  D#m                                  G#7
Afraid that what they're doing is not right
                        Cm7          Bb7
He doesn't know what to say, so he prays
    D#m      C#        D#m
Whatever, whatever, whatever

(refrão)
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m   G#7
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m   G#7
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m
Whatever happens, don't you let go of my hand

D#m7 .... G#m (Strum the D#m7 with the drums) x4
Don't let go of my hand

Don't let go of my hand
                     Cm7                   Bb7
He's working day and night, thinks he'll make her happy
D#m                               G#7
Forgetting all the dreams that he had
              Cm7                 Bb7
He doesn't realize it's not the end of the world
D#m                       G#7
It doesn't have to be that bad
                Cm7                    Bb7
She tries to explain, "It's you that makes me happy,"
    D#m      C#        D#m
Whatever, whatever, whatever

(refrão)
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m   G#7
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m   G#7
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m
Whatever happens, don't you let go of my hand

Don't let go of my hand
Don't let go of my hand

(refrão)
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m   G#7
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m   G#7
Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
         Bmaj7      Bb7                   D#m
Whatever happens, don't you let go of my hand

Whatever happens, don't let go of my hand
