    A              F#m E
If it's true that a rich man leads a sad life
         C#m       D
That's what they say from day to day
   A              F#m  E
Then what do all the poor do with their lives?
        C#m       D
Have nothing to say on Judgement Day?
[Chorus:]
     A         C#m
I've been beat up, I've been thrown out
      F#m      Bm
But I'm not down, I'm not down
     A         C#m
I've been shown up, but I've grown up
      F#m      B
And I'm not down, I'm not down

   A           F#m E       C#m   D
On my own I faced a gang of jeering in strange streets
    A
When my nerves were pumping and I
     F#m E      C#m
Fought my fear in, I didn't run
     D
I was not done

[Chorus]

      A
And I have lived
       C#m
That kind of day
   E          D
When none of your sorrows will go away
D
It goes down and down and hit the floor
C#m
Down and down and down some more
B
Depression

A           C#m
But I know there'll be some way
   E           D
When I can swing everything back my way
D
Like skyscrapers rising up
C#m                B  E
Floor by floor, I'm not giving up

    A
So you rock around and think that
      F#m E
You're the toughest
    C#m          D
In the world, the whole wide world
      A
But you're streets away from where
      F#m E
It gets the roughest
        C#m   D
You ain't been there

[Chorus]

Outro:

    F#m
I'm not down
    E
I'm not down
