Intro:

C  G  F, Dm7  G13, Am  Em/G, F  G13, C, G  F

Verse 1:

C                                   G  F
 The higher you build your barriers;    the taller I become.
C                                    G  F
 The further you take my rights away;    the faster I will run.
G  Am               G  A#maj7           Am Dm   Am/C G/B  Am G
    You can deny me,    you can decide, to turn your face a -way.
No matter, 'cos there's...

Chorus 1:

C                  G  F      C/E
 Something inside, so strong;
  Dm7                                             G13       C
I know that I can make it, though you're doing me wrong, so wrong.
                          G   F            C/E
You thought that my pride was gone, oh, no;
Dm7           G13      Am      Em/G      F
 Something in-side, so strong, oh, oh oh oh oh oh,
             G13      C
Something in-side, so strong.

Verse 2:

C
 The more you refuse to hear my voice,
                          G   F
(Ooh-weh ooh-weh, ooh-weh ooh-weh), the louder I will sing.
C
 You hide behind walls of Jericho,
                          G   F
(Ooh-weh ooh-weh, ooh-weh ooh-weh), your lies come tumbling.
G  Am             G  A#maj7                    Am     Dm
    Deny my place in time; you squander wealth that's mine;
Am/C G     Am   G
 My  light will shine, so brightly, it will blind you, because there's...

Chorus 2:

C                  G  F      C/E
 Something inside, so strong;
  Dm7                                             G13       C
I know that I can make it, though you're doing me wrong, so wrong.
                          G   F            C/E
You thought that my pride was gone, oh, no;
Dm7           G13      Am      Em/G      F
 Something in-side, so strong, oh, oh oh oh oh oh,
             G13      C
Something in-side, so strong.
