Em C Am
Em Been kicked around so long
C You're starting to get Am used to how it feels
Em The taste of blood that's in your mouth
C There's still somehow i Am t always heals
Em Don't know how you keep on getting up
C From all those ghostly Am blows
Em And all that pain that lingers
C Deep down in the darkne Am ss where it grows
Chorus:
D I know how ha C rd it i G s
D To keep your C head up G kid
D To keep your C head up
Em Kid
Em...C....Am
Verse 2: (same as first)
And there you sit on high
All tucked away and locked up in the clouds
Waiting for someone to finally
Come along and take you out
Into this bitter world
That also often treated you so cruel
When they turn away
You know that they will say that you're a fool
Chorus 2:
D I know how C hard it G is
D To keep you C r head u G p kid
D I know how C hard it is G
D To keep you C r head up Em kid
Em... C.... Am
Verse 3: (same as 1)
And so patiently
You waited for a love to come along
Take you out into this bitter world
So often done you wrong
There you sit alone
And there you shed a solitary tear
Listening to a song
You think that no one else would ever hear
Chorus 3:
D I know ho C w hard G it is
D To keep y C our hea G d up kid
D I know ha C rd it i G s
D To keep y C our head up
Keep your Bm head up
Keep your C head up
Keep your Bm head up
Keep your C head up
Pretty rough, but it's a start.
Amos Lee
