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

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

[Chorus]

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

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

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

[Chorus]

Outro:

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