[Gm]Take my [Eb]hand and we'll [F]make it I swear
[Bb]Wooo[Eb]o, [F7sus4]livin on a prayer
Hi, this is my version of Bon Jovis 'Livin' on a prayer'. It is the version from the Club-Gigs 1992 and the same which was played in Europe on the 'Keep the faith' tour. Much better version for acoustic guitar, but if you add the guitar-riff you can play it with a band too.
Use capo on 3rd fret. The original is with em - C - D (without capo), but much harder to sing.
Enjoy.
Livin on a prayer (Bon Jovi)
Verse 1
[am]Tommy used to work on the docks, Union's been on strike he's down on his luck
It's tough, [F]so tou[G]gh

PreChorus
She says:
We've got to hold on to [F]wh[G]at we've got
'Cause it doesn'[F]t make a differe[G]nce if we make it or not[am]
We've got each other and[F] that's a[G] lot
For love[F] - we'll give it[G] a shot
Chorus
[am]Oh [F]oh We're [G]half way the[am]re
[am]Oh [F]oh, livin[G]' on a prayer
[am]Tak[F]e my hand[G] and we'll m[am]ake it - I swear
[am]Oh [F]oh, livin[G]' on a prayer
Verse 2
Tommy got his six string in hock, now he's holding in what he used to make it talk
So tough, it's so tough
Gina dreams of running away, when she cries in the night Tommy whispers :
Baby it's okay, someday
PreChorus
Chorus

We've got to hold on to what we've got
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got
