  G                    D    Em           C             G
Last night I had the dream again and I held you in my arms
 G                               D        Em              C              D
I'd not yet been sent to this island for life and our daughters not yet born
  Em                      C                        Em             D
O I was still young, my plan still clear, and the road ahead was mine
      G                   D         Em C             D      G
But today I count these twenty-seven years in one unbroken line

CH:
G                       C         D               Am
So tell all the young lions hold on for one more day!
 C                  Am        C       D        G
Tell all the young lions hold on for one more day!

   G                  D    Em        C               G
I still can hear an inner voice so loud within this jail
  G                      D    Em               C        D
There's always one more crossroads and always one more nail
     Em             C           Em                D
And every show of mercy, every curve in love's design
  G                  D    Em C         D       G
Leads from darkness into day in one unbroken line

CH:
G                       C         D               Am
So tell all the young lions hold on for one more day!
 C                   Am       C       D        G
Tell all the young lions hold on for one more day!
