Introducción:
G5
Warm yourself by the fire son,
D5
And the morning will come soon.
G5
I'll tell you stories of a better time,
D5
In a place that we once knew.
(verse 2) (a little more distorted for electric)
G5
Before we packed our bags and we left all this
D5
Behind us in the dust,
G5
We had a place that we could call home
D5
And a life no-one could touch.
(chorus)
Em
Don't hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D
I don't need your help now,
C
You won't let me down, down, down.
Em
Don't hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D
I don't need your help now,
C
You won't let me down, down, down, ddoowwnn..
(filler)
G5
We are the angry and the desperate,
D5
The hungary and the cold.
G5
We are the one's who kept crying,
D5
And always did what we were told.
(verse 4) (a little more distorted for electric)
G5
But we've sweaty when you slept so cold,
D5
In the safety of your home.
G5
We've been pulling out the nails that holds up,
D5
Everything you've known.
(chorus)
Em
Don't hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D
I don't need your help now,
C
You won't let me down, down, down.
Em
Don't hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D
I don't need your help now,
C
You won't let me down, down, down, ddoowwnn..
(bridge)
D5
So open your eyes, so lets be on our way,
D5
Broken windows and ashes guiding the way.
D5
Keep crying no longer we'll sing through the day,
Em7 D5
The lives that we've lost, the lives we've reclaimed.
(solo)
Em
Don't hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D
I don't need your help now,
C
You won't let me down, down, down.
Em
Don't hold me up now,
G
I can stand my own ground
D
I don't need your help now,
C
You won't let me down, down, down.
