Intro: Fm 

Fm                     Bbm  
I recall when I first saw you, 
C7                                   Fm 
 Walking on bridge and burning your hand,  
 Fm                     Bbm 
You startled as you approached me,  
C7                                    Fm  
 Then you threw little coins into my cup,  

 Bbm                Fm 
Why do you hold my hand? 
                  C7                  Fm  
Surely that must mean you do care for me  
 Bbm                Fm 
Why do you hold my hand? 
                  C7                  Fm  
Surely that must mean you do care for me  

Fm                      Bbm 
You said you'd read my fortune,  
C7                            
 Then you show me a few of your dance moves,  
                Fm 
In the pouring rain,  
Fm                   Bbm 
You told me of your nightmare,  
C7  
 Became a skeleton,  
Shot the president,  
                   Fm 
Right between the eyes 

 Bbm                Fm 
Why do you hold my hand? 
                  C7                  Fm  
Surely that must mean you do care for me  
 Bbm                Fm 
Why do you hold my hand? 
                  C7                  Fm  
Surely that must mean you do care for me  
 Bbm                Fm 
Why do you hold my hand? 
                  C7                  Fm  
Surely that must mean you do care for me  
 Bbm                Fm 
Why do you hold my hand? 
                  C7                  Fm  
Surely that must mean you do care for me
