E
Honey, I can see you when you're reachin' out for more
Your fear is only rational until it all becomes
   A
A feelin' of the past livin' under summer sun
But baby, you're an animal and life has just begun
 E
Take me as I am and I will take you as you are
You call me on my shit and my jaw is on the floor
   A
I love to have somebody never filter what they say
And I can feel it comin' like you planned it to the day

E
Silver linings, golden shinin'
C#m             A
Perfect timing now

Chorus:
E
Memories I hope to keep safe
And I live for that look on your face
A
I got the best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on
E
Memories I hope to keep safe
And I love to love you, for God's sake
A
I got best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on

E
Holdin' on

Life is like a poem written on a bathroom wall
A decorated list of all the things you've felt before
It's not a perfect narrative, there's beauty in mistakes
It's time to love somebody who won't try to change your way
I remember waitin' on the calm before the storm
Back when we were on the other side of twenty-four
Take me to the place where everybody knows our names
It's better late than never, baby, I don't wanna wait for

Silver lining's golden shining
Perfect timing now

Chorus:
Memories I hold to keep safe
And I live for that look on your face
I got the best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on
Memories I hold to keep safe
And I love to love you, for God's sake
I got the best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on

Silver lining's golden shining
Perfect timing now (Oh-oh-oh)

Chorus:
B
Memories I hope to keep safe
C#m
And I live for that look on your face
A
I got the best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on
B
I got the best friends in this place
C#m
And I love to love you, for God's sake
A
I got best friends in this place
And I'm holdin' on
