Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]You know, I'm sitting here. I'm sitting here just thinking.
I'm thinking about the time my mother [D]said to me.
[G]She said, baby, [Ab]it's time for you to
[G]go out and make ends meet.
She said, want you to go out an[D]d make
ends meet with your [G]own thoughts.[D]
[G]And I remember my mother telling
me [D]there would be [G]days like this.
[Bb]But I didn't believe h[A]er.
I also remember my mother telling me when the time gets
[Ab]hard and going gets kind [G]of tough, don't give up.
Don't give up.
Don't give up[D].
Don't give [A]up.
Don't give up[D].
Don't give [Ab]up.
Because there's [G]one
thing you can always
One thing.
And there's one [A]thing
you can always say.
[Ab]And [G]that is...
You can [A]make it [D]if [G]you [D]try.
[G]You can [D]make it if you try
You can make it if you [G]try
The [C]world [Edim]really i[Bb]s,
[A]you can[D] make it if you try[G][C]
[G]Sometimes you[A] hav[D]e to [G]lie[D][G]
Sometimes you [A]have [D]to [G]cry[C]
[E]I c[A]an make[D] it if you try [G]I'm [C]tel[G]lin[D]' y[G]ou,[D][G]
you [D]can make [G]it if you [D]try
You can make it if you [G]try
[C]You [E]can[Bb] make[A] it [D]if you try[G]
