It's in the DT, but of course without the chords. Here you be ...

Hold On To Me Babe
Tom Paxton

verse:
C - F C
C - G -
C - F C
C G C -

As my achin' head keeps begging, for a sleep that will not come
I rise and walk the morning streets again
I keep wond'rin how you're doin', and I wonder where you are
And I know I'll be all right but I don't know when

chorus:
C F C G
C F C G C

Hold on to me babe, wherever you may be
Hold on to me babe, I'm with you al-ways

There was something locked inside you, like a secret burning pain
Inside a place you would not let me go
I was sure we'd find the answer, 'till I woke and found you gone
Now just what it was I guess I'll never know

I keep holding on to something, though I don't know what it is
But at least I know the sound of my own name
And I work as hard as ever, and I see the same old friends
But there's something deep inside , that ain't the same
