[Verse 1]
           D                 D7
There are people who do not know me
     G                      D
Who must think I've got it made
     D
From all outward appearances
   E7                  A
I guess it looks that way
      D                    D7
I've got good friends and family
      G                D
They let me know they care
         G              D
I got a job to keep me going
       A             D
And a car to get me there


[Chorus]
                A
I'm holding my own
          G        A       D
But I'd rather be holding you
               A
I can make it alone
     G          A            D
But not like I made it with you
             Bm
Without you here
      G                   D
This house just ain't no home
     G            Em  A         D
How long can I go on holding my own

[Verse 2]
          D                       D7
There is brand new show that is playing
        G               D
At the movies down the street
      D
I'll probably go there after work
E7                      A
Then stop somewhere to eat
          D          D7
I've got cable on my TV
           G               D
And I'll leave her on all night
      G              D
While I doze off to sleep
     A              D
And dream that I'm alright


[Chorus]
                A
I'm holding my own
          G        A       D
But I'd rather be holding you
               A
I can make it alone
     G          A            D
But not like I made it with you
             Bm
Without you here
      G                   D
This house just ain't no home
     G            Em  A         D
How long can I go on holding my own


[Outro]
     G            Em  A         D
How long can I go on holding my own
