Dont Give Up Cifras

[Verse]
 
   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
I've changed my face, I've changed my name
           Am
But no one wants you when you lose
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F          Cmaj7             F9
     Don't give up - 'cos you have friends
F          C                    F9
     Don't give up - you're not beaten yet
F         C/E          F            G
     Don't give up - I know you can make it good
 
 
[Verse]
 
Am
Though I saw it all around
                   C
Never thought that I could be affected
               G
Thought that we'd be 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
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F9          C              F9
      Don't give up - you still have us
F           C/E                 F9
      Don't give up - we don't need much of anything
F           C /E             F                   G                 C
      Don't give up - 'cos somewhere there's a place where we belong
 
 
[Bridge]
 
          G     G4 G
Rest your head
              C    F C
You worry too much
                   G     G4 G
It's going to be alright
     C         C7                  F        C
When times get rough, you can fall back on us, 
           C    G           C           F C
Don't give up,    please don't give up
 
        C                       G
Got to walk out of here, I can't take anymore
      C             C7              F
Gonna stand on that bridge, keep my eyes down below
    C                     G
Whatever may come and whatever may go,
          C           G            C
That river's flowing,    that river's flowing
 
 
[Verse]
 
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
 
 
[Chorus]
 
F9         C              Am
     Don't give up - 'cos you have friends
F          C                     Am
     Don't give up - you're not the only one
F          C             F9
     Don't give up - no reason to be ashamed
F          C             F9
     Don't give up - you still have us
F          C                    F9
     Don't give up now - we're proud of who you are
F          C                       F9
     Don't give up - you know it's never been easy
F          C                  F            G
     Don't give up - 'cos I believe there's a place
                           C
There's a place where we belong
