[Am][Am]

[Verse 1]
In [Am]this proud land we grew up strong
We were [C]wanted all along
I was [G]taught to fight, taught to win
I never [Am]thought I could fail
[Am]No fight left or so it seems
I am a man whose [C]dreams have all deserted
I've changed my [G]face, I've changed my name
But no one [Am]wants you when you lose

[Chorus 1]
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
'Cause you [F]have friends
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
You're not [F]beaten yet
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
I [F]know you can [G]make it good

[Verse 2]
[Am]Though I saw it all around
Never thought that [C]I could be affected
Thought that [G]we'd be last to go
It is so [Am]strange the way things turn
[Am]Drove the night toward my home
The place that I was [C]born, by the lakeside
As daylight [G]broke, I saw the earth
The trees had [Am]burned down to the ground

[Chorus 2]
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
You [F]still have us
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
We don't [F]need much of anything
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
'Cause [F]somewhere there's a [G]place

[Bridge 1]
Where we be[C]long
Rest [G]your head
You worry too [C]much
It's going to be al[G]right
When [C]times get rough
You can fall [F]back on [C]us
Don't give [C]up[G]
Please [C]don't give up
'Got to [C]walk out of here
I [G]can't take anymore
Gon[C]na stand on that bridge
Keep my [F]eyes down below
What[C]ever may come
And what[G]ever may go
That ri[C]ver's [G]flowing
That ri[C]ver's flowing

[Verse 3]
[Am]Moved on to another town
Tried hard to [C]settle down
For every [G]job, so many men
So many [Am]men no-one needs

[Chorus 3]
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
'Cause you [F]have friends
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
You're [F]not the only one
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
No [F]reason to be ashamed
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
You still [F]have us
[Dm]Don't give[C] up now
We're [F]proud of who you are
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
You know it's [F]never been easy
[Dm]Don't give[C] up
'Cause I be[F]lieve there's a [G]place
There's a place where we be[C]long[C]
