<< Back to Bon Jovi Song List

Version 1 Version 2 Version 3 Version 4 Version 5

            [Intro]

Em  Em  C  D  Em  Em

C                 D              Em  Em
Once upon a time, not so long ago


[Verse]

Em
Tommy used to work on the docks

Union's been on strike

He's down on his luck
     Am    D   Em
It's tough, so tough
Em
Gina works the diner all day

Working for her man,

she brings home her pay
    Am   D    Em
For love, for love


[Pre-Chorus]

                      C    G     D          Em
She says we've got to hold on to what we've got
          C              G
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
      D          Em
If we make it or not
      C        G         D        Em
We've got each other and that's a lot
    C           D           N.C.
For love, we'll give it a shot 


[Chorus]

Em  C         D
Whooah, we're half way there
G   C   D
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
Em      C              D
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
G   C   D                    Em
Whooah, livin' on a prayer


[Verse]

Em
Tommy's got his six string in hock

Now he's holding in what he used

To make it talk
   Am    D     Em
So tough, it's tough
Em
Gina dreams of running away

When she cries in the night

Tommy whispers:
           Am   D Em
"Baby it's okay, someday" 


[Pre-Chorus]

                      C    G     D          Em
We've got to hold on to what we've got
          C              G
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
      D          Em
If we make it or not
      C        G         D        Em
We've got each other and that's a lot
    C           D           N.C.
For love, we'll give it a shot 


[Chorus]

Em  C         D
Whooah, we're half way there
G   C   D
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
Em      C              D
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
G   C   D                   
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
C
livin' on a prayer...


[Solo]

Em  C  D  D
G   C  D  D
Em  C  D  D
G   C  Em Em


[Pre-Chorus]

             C    G   D        Em
We've got to hold on, ready or not
    C                       D
You live for the fight when that's all that you've got


[Chorus]

Gm  Eb        F
Whooah, we're half way there
Bb  Eb  F
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
Gm      Eb             F
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Bb  Eb  F
Whooah, livin' on a prayer    

Gm  Eb        F
Whooah, we're half way there
Bb  Eb  F
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
Gm      Eb             F
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Bb  Eb  F
Whooah, livin' on a prayer

Gm  Eb        F
Whooah, we're half way there
Bb  Eb  F
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
Gm      Eb             F
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Bb  Eb  F
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
