Hey there, darling, let me count on you.

You hold me  up,

* Pick it in simple Travis Picking. Where you like, add optionally Dsus2 hammered to D and Asus2 to A.
** The version for Amazon uses a key change in the bridge: E  B  A  E  B7
and a lyric change in line ´Take your hand and keep me till the morning light´.
