capo on 5
Am Dm C
AmOh! You gotta Dmkeep on keeping on,
CEven with the feeling
That you're Cgonna keep losing
AmOh! You gotta Dmcome back strong
COh oh oh oh-oh Oh Coh oh oh-oh
AmOh! You gotta Dmkeep on keeping on,
CEven with the feeling
That you're Cgonna keep losing
AmOh! You gotta Dmcome back strong
COh oh oh oh-oh Oh Coh oh oh-oh
AmHe spent most of his youth
With his Dmhead down
Chubby, fCugly, awkward walk
And Cnot much of a talker
AmHe was good at setting bad eDmxamples
But bad at mCath, crunch time
HCe kept it moving like the lunch line
AmWorking on his salad bars
And fDmruit punch lines
His Csimple triplets had his
CEnglish teachers tongue tied
AmAs he starts pirouette for perDmfection
And DCarren Aronofsky black swan reflection
He plucked Ffeathers from his back
And watched hiFs bottom limbs bend forward
TAmowards something more, he wasn't sure
He pluckeFd feathers from his back
And watched his Fbottom limbs bend forward
TEowards something more, towards something more!
AmOh! You gotta Dmkeep on keeping on,
CEven with the feeling
That you're Cgonna keep losing
AmOh! You gotta Dmcome back strong
COh oh oh oh-oh Oh Coh oh oh-oh
AmOh! You gotta Dmkeep on keeping on,
CEven with the feeling
That you're Cgonna keep losing
AmOh! You gotta Dmcome back strong
COh oh oh oh-oh Oh Coh oh oh-oh
AmRaised in a broken home buDmilt brick
By government cheese brCick
BCack and forth between parents
Making us Amsea sick
AmOn his knees every night
PrDmaying for a little change
BuCt the tooth fairy was broke
CAnd offered little hope
He used to stAmand in front of mirrors
With his Dmtoothbrush star searching
But he Cain't have to search far
He was smart Amand made a pact with himself
With a smDmirk and made a vow that oCne day
HCis dad would never ever have to worry
He plucked Ffeathers from his back
And watched hiFs bottom limbs bend forward
TAmowards something more, he wasn't sure
He pluckeFd feathers from his back
And watched his Fbottom limbs bend forward
TEowards something more, towards something more!
AmOh! You gotta Dmkeep on keeping on,
CEven with the feeling
That you're Cgonna keep losing
AmOh! You gotta Dmcome back strong
COh oh oh oh-oh Oh Coh oh oh-oh
AmOh! You gotta Dmkeep on keeping on,
CEven with the feeling
That you're Cgonna keep losing
AmOh! You gotta Dmcome back strong
COh oh oh oh-oh Oh Coh oh oh-oh
AmFast forward a few Dm24 hours
Little bCoy turned man
Makes gCood on his promise
Just to Amsay we didn't take the trips
To the BahDmamas
Now your bFoy bank account
Got a fFew more commas...
AmThe hard work payed oDmff, don't it?
PlFus it feel good when you can say you own it
No Amrent, lease, loan or Dma mortgage
TFhat generator money, no shortage
He plucked Ffeathers from his back
And watched hiFs bottom limbs bend forward
TAmowards something more, he wasn't sure
He pluckeFd feathers from his back
And watched his Fbottom limbs bend forward
TEowards something more, towards something more!
AmOh! You gotta Dmkeep on keeping on,
CEven with the feeling
That you're Cgonna keep losing
AmOh! You gotta Dmcome back strong
COh oh oh oh-oh Oh Coh oh oh-oh
AmOh! You gotta Dmkeep on keeping on,

AmOh! You gotta Dmcome back strong
COh oh oh oh-oh Oh Coh oh oh-oh
