Do                 Re              Mim  
   Once upon a time, not so long ago
Mim
Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
He's down on his luck
     Do     Re   Mim
It's tough, so tough
Mim
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man,
she brings home her pay
    Do    Re    Mim
For love, for love

                      Do    Sol     Re          Mim
She says we've got to hold on to what we've got
          Do              Sol
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
      Re          Mim
If we make it or not
      Do        Sol         Re        Mim
We've got each other and that's a lot
    Do           Re
For love, we'll give it a shot 

Mim  Do         Re
Whooah, we're half way there
Sol   Do   Re
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
Mim      Do              Re
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Sol   Do   Re               Mim
Whooah, livin' on a prayer

Mim
Tommy's got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk
   Do     Re     Mim
So tough, it's tough
Mim
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers:
           Do    Re Mim
"Baby it's okay, someday" 

                      Do    Sol     Re          Mim
We've got to hold on to what we've got
          Do              Sol
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
      Re          Mim
If we make it or not
      Do        Sol         Re        Mim
We've got each other and that's a lot
    Do           Re
For love, we'll give it a shot 

Mim  Do         Re
Whooah, we're half way there
Sol   Do   Re
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
Mim      Do              Re
Take my hand and we'll make it I swear
Sol   Do   Re
Whooah, livin' on a prayer
Do
livin' on a prayer...

We've got to hold on, ready or not
    Do                       Re
You live for the fight when that's all that you've got
