Verse:
B E
With a little love
and some tenderness
we'll walk upon the water
we'll rise above the mist
With a little peace <==== riff starts here
And some harmony
we'll take the world together
We'll take them by the hand
F#m5 E5 B5
Cause, I got a hand for you
Cause, I wanna run with you
Verse:
B E
Yesterday,
I saw you standing there
Your head was heavy, your eyes were red
No comb had touched your hair
I said "Get up,
And let me see you smile
We'll take a walk together
walk the road a while"
Chorus:
F#m5 E5 B5
Cause, I got a hand for you - I got a hand for you
I wanna run with you - won't you let me run with you
B5 E5 F#m5
hold my hand - want you to hold my hand
hold my hand - I'll take you to a place where you can be
hold my hand - anything you wanna be cause
E5
I wanna love you the best that, the best that I can
Verse:
B E
See I was wasted
and I was wasting time
Till I thought about your problems
I thought about your crimes
Then I stood up,
and I screamed aloud
"Don't wanna be part of your problems
Don't wanna be part of your crowd"
Chorus:
F#m5 E5 B5
Cause, I gotta hand for you - I got a hand for you
I wanna run with you - won't you let me run with you
B5 E5 F#m5
hold my hand - want you to hold my hand
hold my hand - I will take you to the promised land
hold my hand - Maybe we can't change the world but,
E5
I wanna love you, the best that, the best that I can
[solo]

hold my hand - I will take you to the promised land
hold my hand - Maybe we can't change the world but,
E5
I wanna love you, the best that, the best that I can

I originally figured this out way up the neck, but it
is played near the nut. You can substitue the alternate
chords and what you get will sound pretty close to
the recorded version.
