D4          D 
I'm hanging on 
D7+            G 
Here until I'm gone 
E                    G 
I'm right where I belong 
             D        D4 
Just hanging on 

D4   D  
Even though 
D7+                    G 
I watched you come and go 
E            G 
How was I to know 
                D 
You'd steal the show? 


Bm           D              E 
One day I'll have enough to gamble 
G            D               E 
I'll wait to hear your final call 
             D   D4 
And bet it all 


D4          D 
I'm hanging on 
D7+            G 
Here until I'm gone 
E                 G 
I'm right where I belong 
             D 
Just hanging on 

D4   D 
Even though 
D7+              G 
I pass this time alone 
E              G 
Somewhere so unknown 
             D 
It heals the soul 


Bm          D 
You ask for walls 
                E 
I'll build them higher 
G            D               E 
We'll lie in shadows of them all 
D4       D                     E 
I'd stand but they're much too tall 
          D 
And I fall 

Chorus 3X
D4 D G   D4            
February stars        
D                D7+   
Floating in the dark   
G         E            
Temporary scars         
G        D             
February stars
