C D Em Em
Once upon a time, not so long ago
[Verse]
Em
Tommy used to work on the docks
Union’s been on strike
He’s down on his luck
Am D Em
It’s tough, so tough
Em
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man,
she brings home her pay
Am D Em
For love, for love
[Pre-Chorus]
C G D Em
She says we’ve got to hold on to what we’ve got
C G
‘Cause it doesn’t make a difference
D Em
If we make it or not
C G D Em
We’ve got each other and that’s a lot
C D N.C.
For love, we’ll give it a shot
[Chorus]
Em C D
Whooah, we’re half way there
G C D
Whooah, livin’ on a prayer
Em C D
Take my hand and we’ll make it I swear
G C D Em
Whooah, livin’ on a prayer
[Verse]
Em
Tommy’s got his six string in hock
Now he’s holding in what he used
To make it talk
Am D Em
So tough, it’s tough
Em
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers:
Am D Em
“Baby it’s okay, someday”
[Pre-Chorus]
C G D Em
We’ve got to hold on to what we’ve got
C G
‘Cause it doesn’t make a difference
D Em
If we make it or not
C G D Em
We’ve got each other and that’s a lot
C D N.C.
For love, we’ll give it a shot
[Chorus]
Em C D
Whooah, we’re half way there
G C D
Whooah, livin’ on a prayer
Em C D
Take my hand and we’ll make it I swear
G C D
Whooah, livin’ on a prayer
C
livin’ on a prayer…
