Keep Swinging chords by Blitz Kids

• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

Verse 1:
Am
I woke up from another nightmare
       C
With nobody there to calm my nerve
       Am
Just a vision of two summers playing stateside
    C
It seems like such another world

Pre-Chorus:
              Am
They tell you sit down and hush, hush
C
This is how the world works
              Am
They tell you sit down and hush, hush,
       C
You'll die like everybody else

Chorus:
                E                   Am
They say you're only a kid you'll forget it
              C
They're too scared to notice

            Am          Fmaj7
When you're down, keep swinging
        C
Because life a mystery
               Fmaj7              C
You never know when you're gonna hit
            Am          Fmaj7
When you're down, keep swinging
        C
Because life is a mystery
Am                   Fmaj7
But you've got to faceit on your own

                C
So keep swinging

Verse 2:
   Am
So wake me up and bring me daylight
          C
Bring me back to where I used to live
        Am
Growing up with everybody on my shoulders
              C
It's so much farther to fall now that I'm older

Pre-Chorus:
              Am
They tell you sit down and hush, hush
C
This is how the world works
              Am
They tell you sit down and hush, hush,
       C
You'll die like everybody else

Chorus:
            Am           Fmaj7
When you're down, keep swinging
         C
Because life a mystery
               Fmaj7               C
You never know when you're gonna hit
             Am          Fmaj7
When you're down, keep swinging
         C
Because life is a mystery
Am                   Fmaj7
But you've got to face it on your own

Then finish off the rest when you’re free

Am             C                          Am            Fmaj7
