Am In this proud land we grew up strong C We were wanted all along G I was taught to fight, taught to win Am I never thought i could fail Am No fight left or so it seems C I am a man whose dreams have all deserted G Ive changed my face, ive changed my name Am But no one wants you when you lose F G Dont give up C Am Cos you have friends F G Dont give up C Am Youre not beaten yet F G Dont give up Dm G I know you can make it good Am Though i saw it all around C Never thought i could be affected G Thought that wed be the last to go Am It is so strange the way things turn Am Drove the night toward my home C The place that i was born, on the lakeside G As daylight broke, i saw the earth Am The trees had burned down to the ground F G Dont give up C Am You still have us F G Dont give up C Am We dont need much of anything F G Dont give up Dm G Cause somewhere theres a place C Where we belong G Rest your head C You worry too much G Its going to be alright C When times get rough F C You can fall back on us C Dont give up G C Please dont give up C Got to walk out of here G I cant take anymore C Going to stand on that bridge F Keep my eyes down below C Whatever may come G And whatever may go C That rivers flowing G C That rivers flowing Am Moved on to another town C Tried hard to settle down G For every job, so many men Am So many men no-one needs F G Dont give up C Am Cause you have friends F G Dont give up C Am Youre not the only one F G Dont give up C Am No reason to be ashamed F G Dont give up C Am You still have us F G Dont give up now C Am Were proud of who you are F G Dont give up C Am You know its never been easy F G Dont give up Dm G Cause i believe theres the a place Am Where we belong
