Notice

This is the longer version of For Tomorrow available on the single versions and also Blur:The Best Of. I have only put the brass in in the interlude, even though it features during the choruses at certain points purely as a reference point. I will add it totally at some point but not until I've tabbed the strings. The brass is transcribed in dropped D.

Lyrics

he's a 20th century boy
with his hands on the rails
trying not to be sick again
and holding on for tomorrow

london ice cracks on a seamless line
he's hanging on for dear life
and so we hold each other tightly
and hold on for tomorrow

singing
la la la etc

holding on for tomorrow

she's a 20th century girl
with her hands on the wheel
trying not to make him sick again
seeing what she can borrow

london's so nice back in your seamless rhymes
but we're lost on the westway
and so we hold each other tightly
and we can wait until tomorrow

singing
la la la etc

holding on for tomorrow

trying not to be sick again
and holding on for tomorrow

she's a 20th century girl
holding on for dear life
and so we hold each other tightly
and hold on for tomorrow

singing
la la la etc

holding on for tomorrow

jim stops and gets out the car, goes to a house in emperors gate
through the door and to his room, then he puts the tv on
turns it off and makes some tea, says modern life, well it's rubbish i'm
holding on for tomorrow
then susan comes inso the room, she's a naughty girl with a lovely smile,
says 'let's take a drive to primrose hill, it's windy there and the view is so nice'
london ice can freeze your toes, like anyone i suppose you're
holding on for tomorrow oh ho
