[Verse 1:]
Yesterday, (mmm)a man stepped to me,
He said, how can you smile,

when your crumbling down
I said, here's my secret,
when I wanna cry,

I take a look around
And I see that I'm getting by


[Chorus:]
And I hold on- lead
(hold on)-choir

Change is comin'- lead
(change is comin')- chior
Hold on- lead

(hold on)- choir
Everything's- lead
(everything's gonna be alright)- choir


Hold on- lead
(hold on)-choir

You can make it- lead
(you can make it)-choir
Hold on- lead

(hold on)- choir
Everything- lead
(will be alright)- choir


[Verse 2:]
Some people like to worry

Some people like to hide
Some people like to run away
From the pain inside

Now it's your business,
do whatever it is you wanna do
But if if it don't work out

Here's what you oughta do

And I hold on- lead

(hold on)-choir
Change is comin'- lead
(change is comin')- chior

Hold on- lead
(hold on)- choir
Everything's- lead

(everything's gonna be alright)- choir

Hold on - lead

(hold on)-choir
You can make it- lead
(you can make it)-choir

Hold on- lead
(hold on)- choir
Everything- lead

(will be alright)- choir

[Vamp:]

When the troubles of life weigh you down,
just lift your head up
(Yea, yea, yea)

When the love you seek is hard to find,
don't give up, just keep strong,
keep the faith and

Hold on

And I hold on- lead

(hold on)-choir
Change is comin'- lead
(change is comin')- chior

Hold on- lead
(hold on)- choir
Everything's- lead

(everything's gonna be alright)- choir

Na,na

And I hold on- lead

(hold on)-choir
Change is comin'- lead
(change is comin')- chior
Hold on- lead

Everything's- lead
(everything's gonna be alright)- choir
