(ver. 1)
Kodaline
 [Intro]
F Gm Bb
F                   Gm
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Bb
La, la, la, la, la, la
F
La, la, la, la


[Verse]
F                           Gm
Ever had a feeling that you can't go on?
       Bb                       F
Trying to be strong but getting weaker
                             Gm
Carrying the weight of every single day
        Bb                      F
Haven't lost your way, feeling defeated


[Pre-Chorus]
C             Bb              Am              Gm
 Sat staring, counting spiral patterns on the wall
C           Bb              Am         Gm
 You wonder if your luck is ever gonna turn around, but oh


[Chorus]
F                                    C
You need a little light to guide the way
                              Dm
Waiting on the sun to shine again
                             Bb
You got to keep your head up high
                             F
You got to keep your head up high
                                C
You need a little hope to carry on
                                           Dm
In the middle of the night when you're all alone
                             Bb
You got to keep your head up high
                             F
You got to keep your head up high


[Verse]
F                                Gm
Your bedroom carpet stained with rose wine
        Bb                       F
Empty's left behind, the morning after
                            Gm
The distant purr of cars on soaking roads
        Bb                         F
And the street echoes the noise of laughter


[Pre-Chorus]
C           Bb             Am               Gm
 The bottom of the bottle, finds you almost every night
C           Bb              Am         Gm
 You wonder if your life is ever gonna turn out right again


[Chorus]
F                                    C
You need a little light to guide the way
                              Dm
Waiting on the sun to shine again
                             Bb
You got to keep your head up high
                             F
You got to keep your head up high
                                C
You need a little hope to carry on
                                           Dm
In the middle of the night when you're all alone
                             Bb
You got to keep your head up high
                             F
You got to keep your head up high


[Post-Chorus]

F                   Gm
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Bb
La, la, la, la, la, la
F
La, la, la, la
F                   Gm
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Bb
La, la, la, la, la, la
F
La, la, la, la


[Bridge]
C             Bb              Am            Gm
 Confused and battered by the motion of the changing tides
C               Bb               Am            Gm
 You're nearing empty and you've barely got the will to fight
C           Bb              Am             Gm
 You wonder if you're gonna live or if you will survive

Ohhh...


[Chorus]
F                                    C
You need a little light to guide the way
                              Dm
Waiting on the sun to shine again
                             Bb
You got to keep your head up high
                             F
You got to keep your head up high
                                C
You need a little hope to carry on
                                           Dm
In the middle of the night when you're all alone
                             Bb
You got to keep your head up high
                             F
You got to keep your head up high


[Post-Chorus]
F                   Gm
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Bb
La, la, la, la, la, la
F
La, la, la, la
F                   Gm
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Bb
La, la, la, la, la, la
F
La, la, la, la
