[D] _ There's a song that [Gm] I wrote some years [Bm] ago now,
personal [E] testimony of mine.

my friend said that I wouldn't make it.
Said that [Bm] I wouldn't even be here today.
[Gm] But y'all know what, I'm still holding on [D] today.
Yes I am, are you holding on out there? _
Amen.

Give her another hand if she comes.
I'm still holding on.
