[Intro]

  G     D/F#  
  Em    C   
 
 
[Verse 1]

 G                   
Don't let your falling 
D/F#
stars blow out
 Em                         C
No matter what you've heard
 G                   D/F#
Don't let the rainy days
                   Em     C
Cloud what you're seeing
G                      
I know you're thinking 
    D/F#
that you've shown up
      Em                 C     G/B
With so much you need to learn
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

    D                Em    
But all you have to do is 
        C
talk to me 
 
 
[Chorus]

            G
And I will hang
 D
Hang on every word
               Em
Word that you say
          C
Let your voice be the 

edge of my world
      D
When nothing goes right
    Em                       C
And all you can speak is the hurt
        Am
I will hang
 Bm           G     D/F#    Em    C
Hang on every word
 
 
[Verse 2]

G               D/F#
It's OK if you can't
    Em              C
And it's OK if you freeze
              G
'Cause it's about
                D/F#
What you'll do next
                Em     C
That gives you meaning
     G                       D/F#
And sometimes they mean to break you
     Em                       C
And sometimes you need to be scared
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]

    G/B   D                Em
But I am  right around the corner
              C
When you're there
 
 
[Chorus]

            G
And I will hang
 D
Hang on every word
               Em
Word that you say
          C
Let your voice be the 

edge of my world
      D
When nothing goes right
    Em                       C
And all you can speak is the hurt
        Am
I will hang
 Bm           C
Hang on every word
 
 
[Bridge]

Am                           Bm
 You, you can feel free to brag
                      C
Or you can cry up a storm
                        
If all that you need is 
    D
someone to believe you
 
 
[Chorus]

            G
And I will hang
 D
Hang on every word
               Em
Word that you say
          C
Let your voice be the 

edge of my world
      D
When nothing goes right
    Em                       C
And all you can speak is the hurt
        Am
I will hang
 Bm           C
Hang on every word
 D             G     D/F#
Hang on every word
       Em
Every word
 C             G     D/F#    Em    C
Hang on every word
 
 
[Outro]
        G                    D/F#
And if suddenly everything starts to be clear
             D
But there's no one around here
      C
That you think will care
      G
I will hang
    D/F#
I'll hang
 Em           C     G
Hang on every word
