(UKULELE vers. – same chords / no capo)
Hold me up to the light
Tell me if the sun comes shining through
And I’ve got this heaviness in my chest
Since your love came breaking through

And I wanna know where it’s coming from
Where is this coming from?
Where is this coming from?
And I wanna know what you’re running from
What are you running from?

Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?

Lay my dreams down at your feet
Baby, watch out where you step
And there’s no need for us
Knowing all the answers yet

And I wanna know what you’re running from
What are you running from?
What are you running from?
And I wanna know where it’s coming from
Where is this coming from?

Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?

You’re back for a minute and you’re gone
And I’ll never know how close I came
You’re back for a minute and you’re gone
And I’ll never know how close
You’re back for a minute and you’re gone
And I’ll never know how
Interlude: G C Am

Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?

Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I?

VERSE 1
Talking like we used to do
It was always me and you
Shaping up and shipping out
Check me in and check me out
Do you like walking in the rain?
When you think of love, do you think of pain?
You can tell me what you see
I will choose what I believe

PRECHORUS
Hold on, d[C/G]arling. This body is yours,
this b[C/G]ody is yours and mine
Well hold on, my d[C/G]arling. This mess was yours,
Now your m[C/G]ess is mine

VERSE 2
See you in the marketplace
Walking ‘round at 8 a-m
Got 2 hours before my flight
Luck be on my side tonight
You’re the reason that I feel so strong
The reason that I’m hanging on
You know you gave me all the time
Well did I give enough of mine?

PRECHORUS
Hold on, d[C/G]arling. This body is yours,
