Chuck Ragan - You Get What You Give Ukulele

   This song is currently my anthem haha, i was so happy when i learned how to 
play it so i hope you will be too!

(This goes for almost all of Chuck's songs, where he does the little hammer-on 
thing when he playes chords, in the a-chord, he does it with his third finger.)

Intro: A

         A                  E 
 Well I shake when I walk, spit when i'm down,
 F#                                     D
beat my head against the wall like the fool that I am.
       A                       E
Catch one dropping tear in the palm of my hand,
         F#                            D
for the rest'd already fallen, to the ground I couldn't stand on.

 
       A                    E      
On and on I declare, on and on I'll debate you.
    F#                               D
To cut my throat and bury me, in the ditch that I belong to.
                A             E
you showed me a sign, yeah a glimmer of light,
                     F#              D
while some called it heaven, oh well I called 'em eyes,

      D       A     
Oh my lady, I never thought that I'd survive,
E                             F#
when you hit bottom, man it's hard enough to climb,
      D                       A
much less not lay down, much less stay awake,
     E                            F#
and hold your head high enough to see what's in your way,

 D           A
if you live.
 E
if you live.

      A                       E
But I followed the trail, let my instict work,
       F#                      D
for a shot in the dark, or at times flush a bird.
         A                              E
Yeah for one special dear's hand in the palm of my own.
    F#                                D
you roll the dice and gamble now, to never be alone.

       A                    E
On and on I declare, on and on I'll debate you,
F#                                     D
mend this heart and pull me, from the ditch that I fell into,
         A                            E
yeah you showed me a sign, you were a beacon of light,
      F#                                  D
while some called it heaven, I called it love at first sight

       D       A     
Oh my lady, I never thought that I'd survive,
E                             F#
when you hit bottom, man it's hard enough to climb,
      D                       A
much less not lay down, much less stay awake,
     E                            F#
and hold your head high enough to see what's in your way,

 D           A
if you live.
       E
if you live.
                  D     A
You get what you give,
        E
if you live.

D      A      E
Ooooooh         x2

    D                    A
So what is it worth, to stay in the dirt,
   E                                        F#
to beat your head against the wall, like a fool who's been hurt,
    D                    A
oh what is it worth, to stand your ground proud,
 E                              F#
dig your nails into that wall, crying, screaming loud,


         D       A     
Oh my lady, I never thought that I'd survive,
E                             F#
when you hit bottom, man it's hard enough to climb,
      D                       A
much less not lay down, much less stay awake,
     E                            F#
and hold your head high enough to see what's in your way,

 D           A
if you live.
 E
Oh if you live.
                 D     A
You get what you give,
        E
if you live.
