Tommy used to work on the docks

The union's went on strike

He's down on his luck, it's tough, so tough
Em
Gina works the diner all day
Em                                               Cadd9
Workin' for her man, she brings home her pay for love
D                            Em
She brings home her pay for love

                        C    D               Em
She says, we've got to hold on to what we've got
     C               D                          Em
It doesn't make a difference if we'll make it or not

We've got each other, and that's a lot

For love, we'll give it a shot

[Chorus]
Em    C         D
Whoah,   we're half way there
G  Cadd9  D
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
Em       C           D
Take my hand, we'll make it I swear

Now he's holding in what he used to make it talk so tough
D                              Em
What he used to make talk so tough
Em
Gina dreams of runnin' away
Em
When she cries in the night
Em                   Cadd9

It doesn't make a difference if we'll make it or not
     C         D                   Em
We've got each other, and that's a lot

When it's all that you've got
