Emotion In Motion

Words & Music:

Ric Ocasek

        C  F  G             C  F  G

I would do anything to hold on to you.

Just about anything until you pull through.

            Am C           F               G

I'd hold on to you 'til the stars no longer wink.

I'd hold on to you 'til you figure out just what to think.

 

CHORUS:

Dm                G       Dm         G

You're emotion in motion, my magical potion.

Dm                G         C  F  G

You're emotion in motion to me.

 

I would go anywhere to meet up with you.

Just about anywhere for one rendezvous.

I'd hold on to you 'til the mountains crumble flat.

I'd hold on to you 'til you figure out just where you're at.

 

CHORUS:

 

I would do anything to hold on to you.

Just about anything that you want me to.

I'd hold on to you 'til you take it all in stride.

I'd hold on to you 'til you want to stay here by my side.

 

CHORUS:  [repeat 3x]
