G D Em

If you're ever less than certain about the world

Please don't let the worry make its way into your work

G D Em

And if you would stick up for me in the face of some adversity

Know that I would only do the same

G D Em Em C C D

Cuz it was well conceived in theory but it doesn't work in life

G D Em Em C C D

But me I will not write it off not ever having tried

G D Em Em C C D

Well I don't know, but I've told not to hang on to my hope

G D Em Em C C D

Well I don't know, but I've told that these are lies and they get old

G D Em Em

So look me in the eyes under expanding winter skies

C Em D

You'll find a feeling there that never knows the cold

G D Em Em

Look me in the eyes and the skeptic in me dies

The skeptic is a fool, we are exceptions to the rule

Cuz this is our land

I will be your Berlin Wall

D G G G/E

And I will never fall
