[Verse 1]
Am
In this proud land we grew up strong
C
We were wanted all along
G Em
I was taught to fight, taught to win
Am G 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 Em
I've changed my face, I've changed my name
Am G Am
But no one wants you when you lose
[Chorus]
Dm C F
-- Don't give up, because you have friends
Dm C F
-- Don't give up, you're not beaten yet
Dm C F G
-- Don't give up, I know you can make it good
[Verse 2]
Am
Though I saw it all around
C
I never thought that I could be affected
G Em
I thought that we would be the last to go
Am G Am
It is so strange the way things turn
[Chorus]
Dm C F
-- Don't give up, you still have us
Dm C F
-- Don't give up, we don't need much of anything
Dm C F G
-- Don't give up, 'cuz somewhere there's a place
C
There's a place where we belong
[Bridge]
C
Got to walk out of here
G
I can't take anymore
C
I'm gonna stand on that bridge
F
Keep my eyes down below
C G
Whatever may come and whatever may go
C F C
That river's flowing - That river's flowing
[Verse 3]
Am
Moved on to another town
C
Tried hard to settle down
G Em
For every job so many men
Am G Am
So many men no one needs
[Chorus]
Dm C F
-- Don't give up, because you have friends
Dm C F
-- Don't give up now, we're proud of who you are
Dm C F
-- Don't give up, you know it's never been easy
Dm C F G
-- Don't give up, 'cuz I believe there's a place
C
There's a place where we belong
