Intro:      G      Em      D (2x)


G               Em                   D       
 Save your words, don't give them up 
                            G 
 All of them are not enough 
               Em            D 
 To make them see or understand 
G                    Em 
 Sometimes the truth 
          D 
 Is a line, you walk a while 
             Am      G 
 Just to find 
          C      D 
 You're alone 


       C 
 Cause everybody thinks they know 
 G            D 
 Everything about it 
   C                            G    D 
 Sticks and stones again and again 
     C 
 But everybody has to know 
 G                D 
 In the end the truth will show 
  Em            D            C 
 Try to stay strong, until then 
            Em         D               G 
 Keep your head up and eyes straight ahead 


 G      Em      D 


G               Em             D 
 No winners here in this game 
                                    G 
 Of pushing guilt and passing blame 
            Em              D 
 So stand aside and let it go 
G            Em               D 
 A better sky, is on it's way 
                                    Am      G 
 So please just try to sit and wait 
              C      D 
 I know it's hard 


       C 
 Cause everybody thinks they know 
 G            D 
 Everything about it 
   C                            G    D 
 Sticks and stones again and again 
     C 
 But everybody has to know 
 G                D 
 In the end the truth will show 
  Em            D            C 
 Try to stay strong, until then 
            Em         D                
 Keep your head up and eyes straight  


   Am 
 Ahead of us  
          Em                          D 
 There is something we're needing to find 
      Am         C      D 
 Up ahead of us 

       C 
 Cause everybody thinks they know 
 G            D   G 
 Everything about it 


       C 
 Cause everybody thinks they know 
 G            D 
 Everything about it 
   C                            G    D 
 Sticks and stones again and again 
     C 
 But everybody has to know 
 G                D 
 In the end the truth will show 
  Em            D            C 
 Try to stay strong, until then 
            Em         D               G      Em      D 
 Keep your head up and eyes straight ahead 
                                       G      Em      D 
 Keep your head up and eyes straight ahead 
                                       C 
 Keep your head up and eyes straight ahead
