These are Hold Me chords by George Benson on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard.

[Intro]
C   Bb   Am   F   (x2)

[Verse 1]
C
 When the picture
          Bb
tells it all
There′s no need for
  Bm Am        G  F
trying or pretending
C
 With your suitcase
        Bb
in the hall
                    Bm Am
It's not a time for lying,
           G F
no more crying
G         C
 I gave a heart that
       Bbmaj7    F
I may never see return
     G
 to me

[Chorus]
Am7
Hold me, like you
              Dm7
used to do before
       F
Let me wrap my arms
  G
around you baby
    Am7
You told me that you′d
                Dm7
 never leave no more
     F             G
So I wrap my life around you

[Verse 2]
C
 Before the pleasure
           Bb
turns to shame
                Bm Am
It's a time for leaving
        G  F
not deceiving
C              Gm
 And, though a promise
          Bb
 has been made
              Bm   Am
I would never hold you
               F
from what you need to do
             C
You keep the years but the
          Bbmaj7
 moments I'll keep near
     F    G
forever dear

[Chorus]
Am7
Hold me, like you
              Dm7
 used to do before
       F
Let me wrap my arms
  G
 around you baby
    Am7
You told me that you′d
                Dm7
 never leave no more
     F             G
So I wrap my life around
you

The passage of years

In some caught-up and

 lonely cafe
