You Keep Me Hangin On

Ann Peebles


Tom: D

A A7

[Verse 1]
A             C#m     D
It's true you got me wrapped around your fingers
E                                           A            A7 A
Seems to me like, seems to me like, that's where I belong
A                 C#m
You know you know how to hold me
      D
You know how to thrill me
     A                            D
And you know how to control me, (makin' me like it)


[Chorus]
 D              E        A        F#m
Just enough to keep me hangin' on
 D              E        A
Just enough to keep me hangin' on


[Verse 2]
A            C#m           D
My heart is like a yo-yo string
     E                          A           A7 A
I'm tied to you, tied to you, right or wrong
A            C#m
My love keeps on growing
          D                          A
And your love just keeps right on showing

[Chorus]
 D               E        A       F#m
Just enough to keep me hangin' on
 D               E        A
Just enough to keep me hangin' on

[Bridge]
D          C#m
A love as true as mine
B                       A
Will make you do most anything
       D                C#m
Like hiding tears and heartaches
      B                        E
And dreaming those silly old dreams


[Verse 3]
 A
Oh sweetheart, you got me
        C#m
Got me where you want me
 D               A
You just keep stringing me along


[Chorus]
 D              E              A  F#m
Just enough to keep me hangin' on
 D              E              A  F#m
Just enough to keep me hangin' on
 D
Like a fool I'm hangin' on.... (fade out)
