      F#
I go out, right out
                             D#m
For a heart in the heartless town
            B
I’d come unwell
          F#
And this love, my love,
                            D#m
Isn’t all that I thought it was
        B
Am I no one, without someone to need me

Chorus:
 B
Hold back your love,
                           G#m
you know that I’ve had my doubts,
                        D#m
Wanna see what I feel without,
                            C#
Every feeling is streaming out,
now you know that I need it.
 B
Hold back your love,
                           G#m
You know that I’ve had my doubts,
                        D#m
Wanna see what I feel without,
                            C#
Every feeling is streaming out,
                         F#
now you know that I need it.

I go out, right out
With the world nearly falling down
I go on out
And I saw no law
A town that's guilty of breaking more
No one adored, trying to reason and pleading

Chorus

         F#                 C#
If I’m dreaming where do I go,
         F#                      C#
Lost my feeling, so how will I know,
         F#                 C#
If I’m dreaming where do I go,
(hold back your love)
         F#                      C#
Lost my feeling, so how will I know,
(hold back your love)
         F#                 C#
If I’m dreaming where do I go,
(hold back your love)
         F#                      C#
Lost my feeling, so how will I know,
(hold back your love)

  B
Hold back your love,
 G#m
Hold back your love,
       D#m
If you hold back your love,
            C#
how will I know?
 B
Hold back your love,
 G#m
Hold back your love,
       D#m
If you hold back your love,
            C#
How will I know?

  B
Hold back your love,
You know that I've had my
 G#m
Hold back your love,
doubts.
Wanna see what I feel
       D#m
If you hold back your love,
without.
Every feeling is
            C#
how will I know?
streaming out,
Now you know that I need it.
