[Db] [Ab] [Bbm] [Fm] [Ebm] [B] [Db]
Years ago my [Gb] heart was set [Ebm] to live, [Ab] oh,
[Fm] I've been trying [Db] hard [Gb] against [A] unbelievable odds.
It [Db] gets so [Gb] hard in times like [Ebm] now to hold [Ab] on, [Fm] the guns that [Bbm] wait to be stuck by [Gb]
at my [B] side is God.
[Db] And there ain't [Ab] no [Bbm] one [Fm] going [Gb] to [Db] turn me around, [Ab] ain't no [Bbm] one [Fm] going [Ebm] to [Db] turn me around.
There's people [Gb] around [Ebm] who tell you that they [Ab] know, [Fm] and places where to [Bbm] send you, [Gb] and it's [A] easy to go.
[Db]
They'll zip you [Gb] up and dress you down [Ebm] and stand you in a [Ab] row, [Fm] but you know you don't [Bbm] have to, [Gb] you could just [B] say no.
And [Db] there [Ab] ain't no [Fm] one going [Gb] to turn [Db] me around, [Ab] ain't no [Bbm] [Fm] one going [Gb] to [Ab] turn [Db] me around.
[Ab] Ain't [Bbm] no [Fm] one going [Gb] to [Db] turn me around, [Ab] ain't [Fm] no one going [Gb] to [Ab] turn [Db] me around.
[Eb] I've been built up [Ebm] and [Gb] trusted, [Ebm]
broke down [Gb] and busted, [Ebm]
[Bbm] but they'll [Gb] get theirs and we'll get [Ebm] ours if we can.
[Bbm] Just hold [Ebm] on, [Ab]
hold [Db] on, [Bbm]
hold [Ebm] on, [Ab]
hold [Db] on.
Years ago [Gb] my heart was set [Ebm] to live, [Ab] oh, [Fm] I've been trying [Bbm] hard [Gb] against strong [A] odds.
[Db] It gets so [Gb] hard in times [Ebm] like now to hold [Ab]
on, [Fm] but I'm bold [Bbm] if I don't fight, [Gb] and at [B] my side is God.
[Db] And [Ab] there ain't [Db] no [Fm] one [Ebm] going to [Db] turn me around, [Fm] ain't no one [Ebm] going to turn [Db] me around.
[Ab] Ain't [Fm] no one going [Ebm] to [Db] turn me around, [Ab] ain't [Bbm] no one [Fm] going [Gb] to turn [Db] me around.
