     SCAREY OLD WORLD   Radney Foster with Chely Wright



C                        F                 G 
Baby It's a scarey old world we're livin' in
      C                 F                       G
Sometimes it's hard to tell with a really old friend
      Am                                   F
But there's not much I'm sure of but one thing is the gospel truth
Am                                     F 
I wouldn't be so damn afraid or what's on the evening news
G                                       F            G 
If I could just wake up every morning lying next to you

CHORUS:
F           G
Hold on to me another minute 
C                      Am
Treasure every second while we're in it
       F                   G
This love so strong  baby let it linger on
          F               G 
Hang on tight and let's chase tomorrow 
C                  Am
Share the dreams survive the sorrow
       F                     G
This scarey old world baby honestly
                F     G                C 
It sure needs lovers just like you and me


C                  F                 G   
Baby I think it's time we made our move
C                   F               G  
Do the things that only true lovers do
Am                             F
I need you right here with me every single step
Am                                     F
I'll give you this heart and soul and pray that God will help
G                              F              G
Be our shelter from the storm til my dying breath
