Verse:GD
You lost faith in the human spirit
FC
You walk around like a ghost
CG
Your star-spangled heart
AmD
Took a train for the coast
GD
When you shine you're a hilltop mansion
FC
So how'd you lose the light?
CG
Was it blown by the wind,
AmD
In the still of the night?
C
We're up against the wall
GDCDEmGAmAmCmaj9CD
Up against the wall
There's something dying on the street
When they knock you down
You're gonna get back on your feet
(No you can't stop now)
Verse:GD
I always saw you as a kind of keeper
FC
A mother to a child
CG
But your boys have grown soft
AmDDsus2
And your girls have gone wild
GD
From the blue ridge to the black hills
FC
To the redwood sky
CG
The season may pass
AmD
But the dream doesn't die
C
Why did you drop the ball?
GDCDEmGAmAmCmaj9CD
Up against the wall
There's something dying on the street
When they knock you down
You're gonna get back on your feet
(No you can't stop now)
GDCDEmGAmAmCmaj9CD
When they break your heart
When they cause your soul to mourn
Remember what I said
Boy you was battle born
(No, you can't stop now)

Up against the wall (Up against the wall)
There's something dying on the street
When they knock you down (Up against the wall)
You're gonna get back on your feet
Cause you can't stop now (Cause you can't stop now)
GDCDEmGAmAmCmaj9CD
Did they break your heart? (Did they break your heart?)
Did they cause your soul to mourn? (Cause your soul to mourn?)
Remember what I said (Remember what I said)
Boy you was battle born (You were battle born)
Cause you can't stop now (Cause you can't stop now)
GDCDEmGAmAmCmaj9CD
Come on show your face (Come on show your face)
Come on give us one more spark (Give us one more spark)
So we'll start a fire (So we'll start a fire)
Unless we fall into the dark (fall into the dark)
And you can't stop now (No, you can't stop now)
GDCDEmGAmAmCmaj9CDG
You never know
If you never learn
You never shine
If you never burn
The rising tide
The undertow
The venom and
The overflow
You turn away
