[Verse 1]

I've seen your hands greased, stained

Turn a wrench, swing a hammer, take apart a V8

Put it back together and never miss a move

They just know what to do

And I've seen your hands ten and two

Headed East, down 40, hometown in the rearview

You left for me, letting go of everything

So I could chase a dream

Steady and true and strong

And right where I belong

[Chorus]

Holding a beer on a Friday night

Holding a match when I need a light

Holding the door and my old guitar

There on my knee in the crowd in a dive bar

Holding a ring and my heart for the rest of my life

Wearing that band, I hope your hand's always holding mine

[Verse 2]

I felt your hands in the dark, light me up all over

Running through my hair and pulling me closer

Like nobody else, know me better than I know myself

You pick me up when I can't stand

Like my momma prayed for kinda man

[Chorus]

Holding a beer on a Friday night

Holding a match when I need a light

Holding the door and my old guitar

There on my knee in the crowd in a dive bar

Holding a ring and my heart for the rest of my life

Wearing that band, I hope your hand's always holding mine

[Bridge]

When we got the whole world in the palm of it

When the going gets tough, ain't letting go of it

Yeah we'll make the most of it

[Chorus]

Holding a beer on a Friday night

Holding a match when I need a light

Holding the door and my old guitar

There on my knee in the crowd in a dive bar

Holding a ring and my heart for the rest of my life

Wearing that band, I hope your hand's always holding mine

Holding mine
